Manufacture Process
Resin is tapped from a plant. This is done by cutting the plant stem and allowing the sap to bleed out and harden. These hardened resins are called tears.
Tapping is done 2 to 3 times a year with the final taps producing the best tears due to their higher aromatic chemical content.
