Description
Handcrafted in Oaxaca using dried leaves and aromatic botanicals, these traditional sahumerios are made to be burned as part of your Día de Muertos altar.
As their fragrant smoke rises, they bring warmth, tradition, and a sense of spiritual connection to your ofrenda, honoring the beautiful Mexican ritual of welcoming our loved ones back home.
To use: light the tip, let it flame for a moment, then blow it out gently and let it smolder. Pass it slowly around your altar and your home, or rest it on a heat-safe dish and let the aroma fill the room.
You get two, so you can light one for the altar and keep one for later, or share one with someone who is setting up their first ofrenda. They are not just for Día de Muertos either, they are a small ritual for any evening you want the house to feel like home.
Always burn on a heat-safe surface and never leave a flame unattended. Because every piece is made by hand, size, shape, and color vary slightly. That is the point.
REAL INGREDIENTS. REAL DIFFERENCE.
Four pillars that guide everything we make.
We source with intention from Mexico, landrace corn, Colima sea salt, Mexican chiles, blue agave and more. Every ingredient has a place, a story, and a reason for being here.
No seed oils. No artificial preservatives. No unnecessary additives. Just recognizable ingredients made for real cooking, real flavor and everyday use.
Our products are made in small batches to protect flavor, texture and quality. Nothing is rushed, over-processed or stripped of what makes it special.
Matriarca was created to honor the ingredients, techniques and women behind Mexican kitchens. These are pantry staples made with the respect Mexican food has always deserved.
Read the label. You’ll see the difference.
