In Shu-ju Sasora, Yamadamatsu captures the deep and resonate qualities of the Rikkoku Nation of Manaka, highlighting the fragrance of Aloeswood from Malaysia.
Shu-Ju Series: Named Shogun in 1449, Ashikaga Yoshimasa assembled the leading experts of the time to develop an aloeswood classification system for his extensive collection. Key among them Shino Soshin and Sanjonishi Sanetaka would go on to form the two leading schools of Kōdō still in existence today: Sanjonishi founding the Oie-Ryu School of Kōdō and Shino founding the Shino-Ryu School of Kōdō. Together with others, Shino and Sanjonishi are credited with creating the Rikkoku - classification of the Six Nations of origin still used to classify aloeswood to this day.
Made from fragrant woods of the highest quality rarely seen today, Yamadamatsu's Shu-Ju series represent the fragrant characteristics of each of the Six Nations of the Rikkoku. Perfect for listening to incense, the Shu-ju series represents an exemplary sampling of the rare jewels of aloeswood at the heart of Kōdō.
