Nepali rope incenses belong to the long tradition of family cottage industries in the Himalayas. Almost all young children learn to twist ropes from their grandparents and eventually teach their own children or grandchildren. The ropes are produced in large quantities by farmers and other villagers during their off season. To make this incense high quality aromatic medicinal herbs are gathered and dried, placed in the lokta paper (made from the daphne bush) and given an artistic twist. Enjoy the Himalayan fragrance!
