How is the Incense of Palo Santo Harvested?

Despite the vast popularity of Palo Santo and the significant demand, there still seems to be a lack of knowledge amongst its regular users regarding its origin and harvesting methods. Let's embark on a journey to understand the roots of the Bursera graveolens tree. This tree natively grows in regions spanning South America, Mexico, and the Galapagos Islands.

During its flowering phase, from January to June, locals can indulge in the mild sweet scent that this magical tree exudes. Historically, Palo Santo, which translates to "holy wood" in Spanish, has been revered by many. Its branches were often collected by locals, later to be used for aroma therapeutic purposes. Today, the scope of Palo Santo's uses has broadened significantly. Beyond its common use for natural incense, its sturdy structure makes it ideal for crafting "materkos" — vessels used to prepare Yerba Mate tea.

The process of harvesting incense from Palo Santo is notably distinct from other similar products. In regions where this tree grows, there are strict regulations against its felling. This ensures that the incense is derived only from naturally fallen or dead trees, promoting a more sustainable and eco-friendly approach.
