FAQ

(Frequently Asked Questions)

What's in the Incense?
Well, as the name suggests, it's almost entirely made from locally-sourced, 100% natural Irish Peat! We have a special process to put the turf through, combine with an all-natural binder and water, then dried in special machines for over 24 hours.

What does it smell like?
This only gets asked by those who have yet to visit Ireland, if you've ever been here, you will know the sweet and unmistakable smell that drifts through the Irish countryside. It's been described as oaky, sweet, with a hint of whisky and magic. Immediate images of Irish living centuries ago spring to mind for those that know...

Does the incense really smell like the real thing?
It's made from the real thing, and it 100% smells like the real thing! No artificial fragrances are used at all.

Do you ship to the USA?
We ship anywhere in the world. We have recently opened up a fulfilment centre in the US and UK, to allow for faster and cheaper shipping options.

Are the Wee Bits any different?
No, they are simply smaller pieces of exactly the same thing. Our production process creates large and small pieces, we use the larger pieces in our sets and refill packs.

I thought Turf was banned?
Yes and No! The sale of Turf / Peat as a fuel in the South of Ireland has been banned by the Irish government (controversially) However in the North of Ireland, where we are based, there is no such ban.

My Turf piece doesn't light, what can I do?
The Turf incense pieces need to be kept dry, if they are in a humid environment they will absorb moisture and become difficult to light, if this happens, dry them in an oven on low heat for a few mins. Also, try a sustained flame (5-10 secs), this usually helps.
During production, we have found a balance between being easy to light, and not burning too quickly.
