About SHOYEIDO

Shoyeido is one of the oldest purveyors of traditional natural incense since 1705. It was founded by Moriyoshi Rokuzaemon Hata in the heart of Kyoto after he received his formal training and service at the Imperial Palace, where he learned the court’s ancient traditions. Their name derives from the three kanji characters: Sho (松) “pine” Ei (栄) “prosperity” Do(堂) “company”, with pine representing the highest quality of wood in Japan. True to this name, Shoyeido’s master blenders have been preserving the art of natural incense-making by hand blending the finest fragrant wood and raw materials with techniques passed down through twelve generations.
