Holy Basil Nepali Rope Incense — Sacred Tulsi

Tulsi, the sacred basil of Nepal, is burnt for blessing, clarity, and spiritual protection.

This Holy Basil Rope Incense (Tulsi) is handmade in Nepal using the sacred leaves and flowers of the basil plant (Ocimum tenuiflorum). Revered in Ayurvedic tradition and Hindu spirituality, Tulsi is often called the “Queen of Herbs” for its protective and uplifting properties.

Its smoke carries a sweet, herbal fragrance with subtle spice, used in temples, rituals, and homes for centuries to purify, bless, and harmonise. Each rope is hand-rolled using rice paper and twisted into its traditional braid, keeping alive an ancient cultural heritage.

Mind & Body benefits: mind — clarifying, centring; body — soothing, refreshing.
