The Holy Mountain

The Holy Mountain is a smoky hearth strewn with incense, an enveloping layer of aged wood and resin melting over a core of dry heat. Mysterious and lasting, The Holy Mountain stays with you and around you, a reminder of warmth and sensuality. It includes over seven precious woods and resins along with a rare extraction of Lapsang Souchong tea smoked slowly over pinewood fires.

Notes: Pine smoke, Incense, Balsam fir, Labdanum, Guaiacwood

“A brother asked Abba Olympios, the priest of the Lavra, for his most protected secrets, and this is what he said:

Do not consort with heretics, keep a fire always burning, and wherever you stay, say repeatedly to yourself throughout the night:

‘I am a stranger.’

I am a stranger.

I am a stranger.”

— JOHN MOSCHOS
