Lovely grey ash

This is absolutely perfect for your incense bowl or burner! I use it as a substrate for burning loose incense that I make myself, and it is great for that. I have not tested whether a half stick/full stick of incense can stand up in it, as I don't generally use incense in stick form.

was kinda disappointed

crap. does not allow the stick to burn completely under the "ash". Shoyeido and Baieido waaaaay better.

Good for formal incense use

If you like to make your own incense, have an incense kit, or want to have a traditional incense experience, then this is great ash. It is on the pricey side for what it is, but it is special and imported from Japan. If you have an incense kit, the ash can be tamped down and used for incense molds. The ash can also simply be added to your incense burner/bowl to hold incense sticks upright—so many uses. This would make a great gift for homemade incense enthusiasts.

Sand?

This stuff is coarse and crunchy. It's total garbage compared to Shoyeido and Baieido ash.
