Description
The white copal burned today in temazcales, limpias, and Day of the Dead offerings is the same resin that burned in Mesoamerican temples and altars more than three thousand years ago. Harvested from Bursera trees native to Mexico’s tropical forests and known in Nahuatl as copalli, it has carried ritual and everyday life across generations without a break in the thread. This one-kilogram size suits anyone who burns it often and in volume: temazcaleros preparing each session, ritual-supply shops reselling by the portion, weekly limpia practice, or a community offering that runs for hours — buying by the kilo means never running short mid-ceremony. Burn it in pieces (“tears”) sized to the moment, on lit charcoal; a kilo covers many sessions, not just one. Ours is Mexican copal, sourced through artisan producers the owner knows personally, harvested with controlled bark cuts that leave the tree standing — a craft passed down across generations and still what connects this resin, ancient in origin, to a home altar, a temazcal, or a workspace today. Copal accompanies ritual and tradition; it is not a substitute for medical or psychological care.
