They didn't tell me who makes the incense for them, but they are made somewhere in India. I've burned a few sticks, and they are decent masala, with some use of fragrant oils or perfumes. At the price, these are excellent value for money. On the whole I find them more attractive and pleasant than the average Satya, at a lower price point. I have a feeling the incense is made by Tulasi - though that is no more than idle speculation based on superficial similarities in packaging and some similarities in incense formulation and scent profile. It could be any number of companies.
The sticks I've explored are masala in appearance - a fragrant charcoal paste hand rolled onto pink dyed bamboo splints, and then coated in a noorva / nurva powder to prevent the sticks gluing together when drying. The paste is soft and semi-moist, indicating that fragrant oils have been used. There are volatile scents on the sticks which is generally pleasant. The burn scents are good - generally more woody and woolly than the fresh scent on the sticks, and certainly what I associate with decent masala. Good scents, certainly decent, though not quite heavenly. Excellent value for money.
