Five leaves of paper incense in five scents, packed in a small wooden box, for the friend who has stopped lighting candles.

HA KO incense is pressed from washi paper and made on Awaji Island, Japan, by Kunjudo, an incense house of more than a century, for Morihata. Light the tip, blow out the flame, and the leaf smolders for five to seven minutes on a heat-proof dish. Each leaf is its own scent, so the box works as a tasting of the range.

For the new home where the rituals are still being figured out. For the host who appreciates small objects. A Hanukkah night or a stocking, or for you.
