Connection to Assam Agarwood
Sukūn draws from the rich tradition of Assam’s agarwood industry, a history that stretches back centuries. Assam’s agarwood, known as "sanchi," is globally renowned for its resinous heartwood, a valuable source of fragrant incense used in Southeast Asia and the Middle East. This "scented gold" has been cherished for its medicinal, spiritual, and aromatic properties throughout history, playing a crucial role in cultural rituals and personal moments of reflection.
The association between Assam and agarwood can be traced back to the Kamarupa kingdom, where it was documented by travelers like Huien Tsang. Over time, Assam emerged as a significant player in the global agarwood trade, with the industry booming in the 19th and 20th centuries. In recent years, the Assam government has revived agarwood cultivation, encouraging private growers to cultivate agarwood on a sustainable basis, ensuring that this precious resource continues to thrive.
Sukūn honors this deep heritage by sourcing only the highest quality agarwood, produced through ethical and sustainable means. Our commitment to the environment and to the cultural legacy of Assam makes Sukūn a company rooted in tradition but driven by modern values.
