In my opinion this is the best in the world.
So excuse my long review.
It is on the lower pricing end, but the highest quality.
I have tried Nag from over 50 companies.
There is an expensive red nag that I like on rare occasions.
But my bread and butter incense is Goloka Nag Champa.
I love the box too.
Much prettier than it looks in the picture.
But I actually have a large wooden cigar box now to hold it all.
I've been buying it for many, many, many(okay 20)years.
The larger the box, the better the deal.
I actually buy the 1000 stick (1 kg) boxes.
I burn 3-10 a day.
Golaka is also considered to be in the top 3 by expert noses.
Mine is not expert, I just know I like it best.
It has the best, smoothest blend of a complex scent.
And it just smells fresh.
Like it just got rolled yesterday from plants out back.

I buy these 100g boxes for thank you gifts.
If someone is really special, buy the 1000g from the company itself.
You get thanked again and again for years.
If they are Nag Champa fans, they will literally jump up and down.

I enjoy the scent of Goloka way more than original nag champa. This box lasts me a couple of years, because I burn on average 2-5 sticks a month. (I'm not covering any smells with this stuff. Just creating.)

My only quip is the mild allergies I get when I haven't burned a stick in awhile. I'll buy another box in a few years.

Adds perfect atmosphere to my pink floyd music/jimi hendrix posters.

Within the noble tradition of Nag Champa incense - the choice of seasoned yogis the inner world over, this particular formulation of rare herbs equates to a nearly transcendent experience. After practicing within its intoxicating vapors, everything becomes alluring. My partner absolutely loves the way i smell after a meditation or asana session within my Agarbathi-scented sacred space. i also use this for teaching asana; it is very light and non-smoky. hand-rolled in India and with sale percentages going to help children, hec, why not rack up the White Karma stones and get some?

This nag champa is the sweetest aroma of all that I have tried. It enhances a sense of meditative equalibrium in the spaces it is used.

Since most people are familiar with perennial favorite 'Satya Sai Baba Nag Champa' made by Shrinivas Sugandhalaya, I will use it as a comparison. I have to say I like this Nag a little more than Sai Baba. In the box Sai Baba smells a little nicer, but where it counts, burning, Goloka edges out the Sai Baba. It is less smoky, not as sweet. Just a cleaner smelling burn. It does burn a little faster than the Sai Baba which is it's only short coming. And it certainly has Sai Baba beat on price. My next order of Goloka will probably be the 500g box.

i bought this brand based on the strength of the reviews. it's good but not great, and certainly not on par with the other brand. i mean, i wouldn't kick it out bed or anything (LOL), but the aroma is more woodsy and less sweet, when compared to the original satya sai baba that everyone knows and loves.

perhaps i'll develop a greater appreciation for it over time, but at the moment i'm a little disappointed. that's my honest opinion.

I first came across this blend of incense a few years ago and to me this blend in a yellow box called Goloka is very nice if you like the other Nag Champ varities you will love this one try it you wont regret it.

This is our first try of Goloka but like the other Nag Champa products ... it 's excellent and we love it!!

This incense has a wonderful, alluring, almost intoxicating scent. It stays around after burning, very subtle though, leaving a very lovely background aroma. Never over-powering, always amazingly delightful, and conducive to a calming meditative experience.

Very good price and exactly as described. Fast shipping too. I would recommend this to others.
