What is the best agarwood called, and what is the best variety of agarwood?

First, the fragrance should be good. The fragrance starts from the incense attributes of agarwood, and good fragrance and rich taste changes are important conditions to determine the quality of agarwood. However, it should be noted that except for Qi Nan and some unique production areas, the general agarwood will not taste too strong at room temperature, and the agarwood accessories worn by people will be heated by body temperature, and some of the oils will exude fragrance.

Because some oils in agarwood have a relatively low boiling point, between 37 degrees Celsius and 39 degrees Celsius, but the part of the oil with a higher boiling point needs to be heated to produce a fragrance. If the taste is unpleasant or even harmful, it is mostly counterfeit.

Second, the degree of fragrance should be high. The degree of fragrance determines important attributes such as oil content, submerged or not, etc. But incense that doesn't sink is not necessarily bad. Take yellow ripe incense as an example, although it is not submerged, and the surface is yellow and rotten, very loose, but its taste is very quiet, and it is also fragrant.

Third, it is the production area. The agarwood in the rare production area must be better than the agarwood in other production areas, and the rare agarwood in the rare production area must be higher in quality than the agarwood in this production area, so it is digested quickly, so it will cause scarcity, of course, this is only for rare production areas and high-quality production areas.

Fourth, the quality of agarwood. As the name suggests, it is the appearance and appearance of agarwood. The condition of agarwood includes the following two aspects, the first is the natural shape and size of agarwood.

Because the volume and shape are naturally determined when the incense is knotted, the larger the size of a single piece of agarwood, the higher the value. If it is a good form of agarwood, because it can be used as a raw material for carving, it can be molded into a beautiful work of art, of course, it is hard to find. Secondly, if it is a processed Buddhist bead or pendant, it also depends on whether the grease line is beautiful.

Generally speaking, the oil content and the distribution of oil determine the quality of the product, the higher the oil content, the better the quality will be; The concentration of oil will form a beautiful oil line, and the quality will naturally be very good, which will also add points to its future appreciation potential.

The best agarwood is called agarwood, and the bad one can only be called agarwood. The best quality agarwood should not be woody, but resin crystals, and the state is similar to rosin, so that agarwood can be used in medicine, and it is also a masterpiece.

In general, the most important criterion for determining the grade of agarwood is its resin content. Agarwood resin is extremely heavy, although the specific gravity of the log is only that, when the resin content exceeds 25%, any form of agarwood (flakes, blocks, powders) will sink in water. The name of agarwood comes from its ability to sink in water.

Therefore, agarwood, also known as "agarwood", "water agarwood", is written as "agarwood" (Shen, with Shen) in the ancient language. The "Shen" of "Shen Tan Dragon Musk Deer" often said in ancient times refers to agarwood. Generally speaking, the greater the density of agarwood, the more resin condensed, and the better its quality, so the ancients often divided agarwood into different grades based on whether it can be immersed in water:

First of all, the one who sinks into the water is called "sinking water" incense; secondly, the half-floating and half-sinking ones are called "stack incense" (stack, a thing made of bamboo and wood), also known as "note (sound "fried") incense", "water incense", etc.; Again, the one that enters the water slightly and floats on the surface of the water is called "yellow ripe incense". Due to the natural condensation of agarwood, the size and shape are very different, and the ancients took a lot of interesting names for its characteristics, such as: tooth incense (small size, like a horse's teeth), leaf incense (flaked), chicken bone incense (there are gaps inside, like chicken bones), light incense (the appearance is like an exhausted mountain stone, mostly used for furnishings), water pan head (volume.

What is the best variety of agarwood?

Hello, according to the place of origin, it can be divided into two types: domestic agarwood and imported agarwood. In ancient times, agarwood was abundant in China, but it is rare now. The best agarwood in ancient times was produced on Hainan Island, so the other name of agarwood was "agar".

At present, Vietnam's Qi Nan Shen is the finest agarwood, but the quantity is very small.

Water pan head (very large and soft), "quick incense" (taken before agarwood is naturally formed) and so on. Some of the ingeniously shaped agarwood can also be used as ornaments.

Take a look. Hope it helps, I wish you a happy life.

Summary. Qi Nan agarwood.

If you only say that the most expensive agarwood, it is Qi Nan, but because Qi Nan agarwood has a high amount of oil and a relatively soft texture, it is generally not suitable for making hand beads, but it is not nothing.

In fact, Qi Nan also has a hierarchy classification, including white, green, purple or honey, yellow and other four categories. If you look at it according to the single gram, white is the highest, and the others are decreasing one by one. A string of Qi Nan bracelets generally ranges from hundreds of thousands to millions, and the following Qi Nan bracelets are a masterpiece with a price tag of 3 million yuan.

The high-grade Qinan is usually more half-sinking and half-floating, but there will also be submersion, but the number is less. When you open the bottle containing Qi Nan, you can immediately smell a cool and slightly pungent aroma. Put it in the incense burner and light it indoors, the fragrance is stronger at first and then spreads, if there is nothing, until it fills the whole house, it does not disperse for a long time, and the smell makes people feel calm.
