Kunjudo is a Japanese incense manufacturer established in 1893 on Awaji Island. Awaji Island is historically significant in Japan's incense culture, as it's where fragrant wood, likely agarwood, first washed ashore in 595 AD according to the Chronicles of Japan.

For over 130 years, Kunjudo has built a reputation for quality, employing skilled scent masters (Koh-shi) and artisans. Kunjudo is committed to meticulous craftsmanship, using carefully selected natural ingredients and rare wood powders. They also prioritize innovation, having developed the world's first reduced-smoke incense in 1975 and utilizing eco-friendly materials like coconut shell charcoal.

Kunjudo seeks to expand the use of incense beyond its traditional associations with temples and funerals, developing products with minimal smoke and exploring new forms like paper incense (HA KO) and paper strip incense.
