Roasted Hazelnut, the Ingredient your Bukhoor may be Missing

Hazelnut is a type of nut that is known for its sweet and nutty flavour.

When hazelnut oil is heated or burnt, such as in bukhoor, it releases a warm and comforting aroma that is sweet, nutty, and slightly earthy. The scent is similar to the aroma of freshly roasted hazelnuts, with a subtle hint of caramel or chocolate.

The aroma of hazelnut oil is believed to have a calming and soothing effect on the mind and body. It is said to promote feelings of relaxation, comfort, and contentment. Some people also use hazelnut oil in aromatherapy to help reduce stress and anxiety.

Discover the alluring aroma of hazelnut during our Bukhoor making workshop session.
