The Nimu tradition of making incense is a prime example of preserving biocultural heritage. Local artisanal households maintain proprietary formulations that include Crocus sativus and over 30 other endemic species. These formulations are processed using stone grinding and solar dehydration techniques. The final step is to bundle them together with red ceremonial threads.
