About Kodo |

Kodo is a unique traditional culture of Japan and is one of the three greatest Japanese ways of art along with Sado (tea ceremony) and Kado (flower arrangement). It is the practice of heating a piece of fragrant wood to extract its scent, and it soon became popular among the upper class after being introduced in during the Heian Period.
