This is a limited release, making its debut in Taiwan. Quantities are limited and available while supplies last. I Think Creative, the nation's only dedicated card specialty store, was recognized by Japan's Shoyeido in Kyoto in 2018, becoming an official distributor for Shoyeido in Taiwan. This also marks the first instance globally of a card specialty store becoming a Shoyeido distributor. Kyoto's most renowned establishment, the esteemed incense house Shoyeido, was founded in Hōei 2 (1705). With over three centuries of history and now in its twelfth generation of family stewardship, Shoyeido continues to craft incense using traditional methods and natural ingredients. Many famous Kyoto temples, including Kinkaku-ji, Ginkaku-ji, Tō-ji, and Kiyomizu-dera, use Shoyeido's incense sticks. The incense souvenirs available for purchase at these temples are also meticulously produced by Shoyeido. All incense stick products are handcrafted in Kyoto workshops, adhering to ancient techniques. Furthermore, all other Shoyeido products, from incense burners to small incense rests and portable sachets, are made in Japan, utilizing only the finest materials. Despite Shoyeido's considerable renown both in Japan and internationally, the company maintains a strict policy of only nine directly managed stores nationwide. They refrain from expanding sales points casually or employing franchise systems to boost sales, thereby ensuring the highest quality of products and services. For its global overseas locations, Shoyeido rigorously vets the business philosophy and attitude of each distributor and maintains a strict limit on the number of official distributors to safeguard its centuries-old reputation. While incense sticks do not have an expiration date, to ensure enthusiasts in Taiwan can enjoy the freshest incense, I Think Creative employs a strategy of small, frequent orders. We place an order every two months, directly shipped from the Kyoto headquarters to Taipei, guaranteeing the optimal quality of the incense. Due to our collaborative relationship and mutual trust with the headquarters, I Think Creative is among the few distributors authorized to sell Shoyeido's limited edition overseas incense sticks and Japan-exclusive products. Consequently, I Think Creative has introduced seven distinct product lines, encompassing nearly fifty different incense stick varieties. Alongside these, we offer a selection of over forty complementary items, including incense rests, dishes, and burners. This allows you to explore and purchase a wide array of Shoyeido incense products without needing to travel to Kyoto. ※ All product dimensions are measured flat in centimeters. Slight discrepancies may occur due to manual measurement. ※ The color of the product images may vary slightly due to differences in computer monitor settings. Please refer to the actual product color. We appreciate your understanding. ※ Sachets contain natural incense powder. The fragrance will naturally dissipate over time, typically within about a year of opening and use. While the scent will fade, the sachet remains a beautiful decorative piece.
