What is the difference between Frankincense and Sacred Frankincense?

Q. What is the difference between Frankincense and Sacred Frankincense?

A.  Frankincense Presentation Notes - Cole Woolley, PhD speaking at The Thrive Conference 02/15

Boswellia carteri is a “cousin” to B. sacra, differing by 2 components

  • The uses for the 2 species are about the same
  • Boswellia carteri ships from Somalia to Dubai
  • Sourcing 1,000 kilo/monthSacred Frankincense
  • Boswellia sacra
  • Oman, most prized
  • 2009, Oman put a ban on all others wanting to harvest Frank
  • We control, this ensures a single species, Boswellia sacra
  • For 5,000 years the people of Oman have collected resin of Boswellia sacra

YL worked with Oman botanists to identify Boswellia sacra, which only grows in this one place in the world. Note: India has inexpensive Frankincense.

It grows at 3,000 feet, some along the ocean. It grows in this region because of the limestone. There are annual monsoons there every summer providing unique moisture.

Cultivation

  • Omani resin collection method 
  • Methods of resin collection are 5,000 years old
  • One tree give 1 kilo every year
  • If you want to have oil, you collect resin
  • Resin is only collected every 2 weeks, for three times, then the tree scars
  • The resin is put in the sand to dry out 
  • Resin is distilled to produce the oil

Three companies have tried to distill Sacred Frank and all 3 were kicked out by the Omani government. It is “impossible” to get a license to do what YL is doing.
