Description:
Frankincense (Boswellia serrata) oil is steam distilled from tree resin. Tapping is done 2 to 3 times a year with the final taps producing the best resin, due to its higher aromatic terpenes, sesquiterpenes and diterpenes content.  The Frankincense tree grows as a short shrub, about 3-7 meters (10-23 feet) with an abundance of leaves and blossoms with white or pale pink flowers. F. Serrata is different from F. Carterii with a different odour and leaf, as the name Serrata refers to its serrated leaf. Its natural location is in India through to Pakistan and has been used as incense traditionally. 

Indian Frankincense Oil (Boswellia serrata) is high in natural constituents with a variety of healing powers. These components make Indian Frankincense Oil a powerful antiseptic, decongestant, and anti-inflammatory agent.  Frankincense Serrata's aroma is sweet, woody and delicate, with terpenic-pine top notes. Frankincense oleo-gum-resin is tapped from Boswellia trees through carefully making a small incision in the bark and allowing the exuded milky resins to harden. Due to India's higher production volumes of Indian Frankincense Oil (Boswellia serrata), this oil has a more affordable price point compared to Somali and Oman/Yemen Frankincense Oils which are different varieties called (Boswellia carterii) and (Boswellia sacra).
