At a Glance: Sandalwood - Traditional Herbs - Cinnamon - Clove 

Length: 13.5cm Burn Time: ~30 minutes

Main Notes / Character: It opens in a traditional direction, with sandalwood forming a steady base. As it develops cinnamon comes through more clearly and takes a leading role, supported by clove and the underlying herbal blend. The spice is warm and present, shaping the character without becoming harsh.

It settles into a composed, classic profile. Steady woods, defined spice, and a traditional feel that stays consistent through the burn.

 History / Lineage: Sawayaka Kobunboku is Baieidō’s variation of the classic plum-tree blend, sitting within the Kobunboku family but with a slightly different balance and expression.

Meaning behind the Name: “Sawayaka” (爽やか) means “fresh” or “crisp,” reflecting this revitalised, refreshing interpretation of the Kobunboku tradition.
