Isle of Iona | Fresh Hay, Honey, and Amber

from £11.99

Just beyond the west coast of the Isle of Mull lies the tiny island of Iona, filled with sandy white beaches and a rich historical landscape. In 563 AD, St Columba built his first monastery here which lasted until the end of 12th century, despite the reoccurring Viking raids!

Mood: Quills dip into rue and buck-thorn ink, scratching interlacing animals and saints into finely made parchment. Honeyed mead and incense cloud the space, sinking into the wicker walls and daub. Beyond the turf vallum, monks toil. Fresh hay and earth linger as storm approaches, bringing ships like fiery dragons. Welcome to the Early Medieval.

Fragrance: Honey, lavender, nutmeg, mint, patchouli, vanilla, and amber.
