What is Ranjatai? A work of art in fragrance nurtured over time

Ranjatai is known as the largest fragrant wood in Japan and is kept under strict security in the Shosoin Repository of Todaiji Temple in Nara Prefecture. It measures 156cm in length, 42.5cm in diameter, and weighs 11.6kg. This special fragrant wood is a rare species of agarwood called "agarwood" that comes from trees of the Thymelaeaceae family native to Southeast Asia.

The secret of the scent is that when the tree is injured, the resin secreted in the process of healing the wound is allowed to mature over a long period of time. This creates a deep and rich fragrance. The scent is so profound that it is called a "miracle of nature," and it is said that once you smell it, you will never forget it.

Ranjatai and History: The Fragrance that Captivated Oda Nobunaga

Ranjatai has held a special place among powerful people throughout history. One particularly famous story is that of Oda Nobunaga, the warlord of the Sengoku period. Nobunaga, with permission from the emperor, cut off a piece of Ranjatai and used it as a symbol of his authority. Pieces of it were also shared with tea master Sen no Rikyu, proving the high cultural value of the fragrance.

Ranjatai was not just a fragrant wood, but a symbol of power, culture, and aesthetic sense. This is one of the reasons why it continues to fascinate so many people.
