Avalon hand blended incense is inspired by the myths and legends surrounding the mystical Isle of Avalon - Island of enchantment and entrance to the Fairy-realm. It is said that the veils between the worlds are thin in this part of the world. Stories are told of travellers who lost their way in the mists and suddenly found themselves among the merry Fairy-folk of Avalon. Seduced by their kind hosts, they danced and played the night away, laughing and drinking with the Fairies and having a jolly good time. The following morn', however, they found themselves back on the dusty old road. But to their surprise they realised that during the night and day they spent in Fairy-land a whole year had passed by and many a traveller never reached their destination in time... These days, the Isle of Avalon has sunk deeper and deeper into the mists and ordinary mortals rarely pass through the veils anymore - but once in a while, especially when the Moon is full, you might catch a glimpse of the merry procession of Fairies passing by. This incense can be burnt to invoke the magic of Avalon, or as an offering to the Fairy-folk.

How to use Avalon Hand Blended Incense:

Place a charcoal disc on a fireproof surface away from anything flammable. A ceramic or metal dish containing some sand is ideal.
Hold a match or a lighter to the rim of the disc, taken care as the disc may spit and spark on ignition. Also allow a good air flow around the disc so that it can burn evenly, and be aware that it may give off quite a lot of smoke.
Once the disc is red hot and glowing, drop a pinch of the incense on the top.
Scrape off the ashes from time to time to expose the glowing centre of the charcoal disc and add more incense as required.
NEVER hold a lit disc in your hand, and dispose of spent discs carefully.

Looking after your incense:
This type of incense keeps well, and as long as it is kept in a cool dark place it should actually improve with age.
