Just curious - so would the tarakan woods I got from Dr i not be from tarakan actually? Guess I'll have to bring some to Georgia to get an opinion on it. Smells great at room temp!
bring some!

glad we have this forums and people who really know whats going on with correct info, sadly the shops here all bad or outdated and many miss information, there is for sure really really really old stock stuff but he might tell you its "that" and you its something else lol
@RisingPhoenix JK you gotta open an oud museum one day. all those magnificent relics you have is insane.

those are nice brother, thai? education plz
those looks nice brother, ones we have here no where near this grade ;o its mostly white wood with few resin even though it looks great from outside on burner its quite um..? not sure what to say
im from kuwait, before this covid stuff happen i used to be almost daily in Mubarkia market it have lots of stuff but most of the agarwood shops also there in many complexs etc and i know friend with shop and he bring most of his wood from india and rest from indonesia so yea i pretty much seen a lot and i have pics of some wood i toke pics for from some collector shop he have in home some awesome stuff but not in shopWhere’s home that you’re seeing so much white wood, locally?
We all dream of plantation wood catching up to wild stock. This is one of two batches I’ve got on hand of some drilled Hindi that is almost solid resin. Single tree, old old plantation. Smells like a fantastic cup of English Breakfast, leathery and tea-like - with hints of dark berries. Spectacular stuff.
I’ll try to snap some shots of the wild materials that I have on hand tomorrow.
Honestly - this batch and the other like it from the same old plantation is a fantastic value. Black, resin dense, and incredibly aromatic at room temp.

I do have a few wild Hindi lots on hand. I get some photos for ya soon.
I have a little bit of wild Thai, as well. Doesn’t look impressive - but the scent on an electric is
Working on getting some more. Part of the challenge is when it DOES pop up - it’s usually sold by the time I even get the message from my resources I literally just missed some the other day that kinda got my panties in a bunch
The good news, is .... LOTS of other unique stuff I’ve got here on hand.
Spent part of my afternoon working on this ...
