Benedictus XVI Mini Incense Kit with Tongs

A mini devotional kit pairing 0.7 oz of the Benedictus XVI liturgical incense with 6 quick-light charcoal tablets and mini tongs.

The blend keeps a soft, gentle character with abundant smoke at a low intensity — the opposite of an aggressive aromatic. It was composed in homage to Pope Benedict XVI's emphasis on the quiet reverence of the Roman liturgy and fits personal prayer at a home altar, eucharistic adoration, or quiet chapel use.

Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger was elected as Pope Benedict XVI in April 2005 and served until his resignation in February 2013, the first pope to step down voluntarily since Celestine V in 1294. He retired to the Mater Ecclesiae Monastery inside the Vatican gardens and lived there as Pope Emeritus until his death on December 31, 2022. His theological writings, especially Jesus of Nazareth and the Introduction to Christianity, remain among the most widely read Catholic books of the twentieth century.
