Frankincense, the treasure of traditional Chinese medicine, is as delicate as a pearl necklace. It is shaped like a dry gum resin, tiny granular or irregular small pieces, and is 05, 3 cm. The pale yellow coat is occasionally tinged with green, blue, or brownish red, like a shy girl. The surface is covered with a layer of frosty white dust, which still does not lose its luster after being gently brushed off. The texture is brittle, the section is like wax, there is no gloss, and there is also a glass-like luster. The faint aroma, which seems to be there or not, can only be captured by savoring it.
With a light chew, it shattered into small pieces and quickly softened into a glue mass, crystal like a girl's tears. Frankincense is a gift from nature, which exudes from the bark of the olive family Frankincense tree and its congenital plants to form that unique resin. It is found in northern Ethiopia, Somalia and the South Arabian Peninsula.
It is elongate, round-like or glued into irregular lumps, some up to 2 cm or 5 cm long. The surface is yellowish-white, translucent, covered with yellowish-white powder, and the color deepens over time. Crispy and softens when heated. The broken surface has a glassy or waxy luster. It has a specific aroma and a slightly bitter taste.

From the selection of the appropriate import method, the preparation of relevant documents, to the control of each customs declaration link, every step can not be sloppy.
