Premium White Copal (Bursera Bipinnata) Mexico Bliss Pack Larvikite The reason is partly chemistry

The reason is partly chemistry - α-pinene smoke is strongly antibacterial - and partly availability: nearly every cold or dry region of the northern hemisphere has its local Juniperus

Premium White Copal (Bursera Bipinnata) Mexico Bliss Pack Larvikite The reason is partly chemistryPremium White Copal from Mexico pale, brittle resin tears from Bursera bipinnata, part of the wider Burseraceae family that includes frankincense and myrrh on the Old World side and palo santo on the New World side.
