100+ years old, from a 600-year-old Zen garden.

A very lucky find in the garden of a 600+year-old Zen Buddhist temple in southern Japan. We know for sure that this tree is over 100 years old because of photos and memories, but the exact age is unknown. When trees like this are harvested in Japan, already quite a rare event, they tend to be made into fine incense as is the culture in Japan. What an opportunity to rescue this one for essential oil distillation! This temple is set deep in a lush mountainside forest surrounded by giant bamboo, cedar, and Japanese citrus trees. Because of the rocky terrain and thin soil this tree grew in, its growth was challenged and it suffered a partial bonsai effect, a stressor on the tree's growth that is known to intensify the aroma the tree produces. The cut wood was then aged 3 years on-site at the temple, before being transported to Aroma Sublime headquarters in Vietnam for 8 days of distillation in Tony's copper still.
An opportunity to experience a sandalwood oil of exceptional quality and distinction. The scent of ZEN ONE is dense and intense, clean, spicy and invigorating but without being sharp or camphorous. Its pure sandalwood glory all the way through, but with some unique features that reflect the very special terroir. Most notably, the outset features a surprising full medley of peppercorns; fresh green peppercorns, resinous and rich gourmet black peppercorn, scintillating pink, and fresh pungent long pepper. You will also notice a prominent sustained cedar note from the outset to heart, as the early spiciness dissipates, cedar and other conifers step in. The finish is big dense sandalwood quintessence, remaining clean and bright all the way. This oil has remarkable staying power.
This very special sandalwood oil will only improve with age.
