The Tall Cylinder Burner has three stacking layers—a base for storage of cone or spiral incense, a middle layer with an incense holder and ash catch, and a cover to conceal the burning incense and ash with an opening for release of smoke. The agave holder in the middle layer allows the incense to properly burn, as oxygen can make its way all around and beneath the incense. The three slots between the middle and cover layer allow air in and the domed interior of the cover directs the smoke to the opening in the top.
