Merchant's Cargo | Nag Champa Tallow & Beeswax Candle

Merchant's Cargo

A Trading Post Collection Candle

There was a time when every arriving ship carried more than supplies—it carried stories.

Wooden crates filled with rare spices, fragrant woods, precious resins, and treasured botanicals crossed oceans before finding their way into bustling colonial trading posts. Opening those crates released warm, earthy aromas unlike anything found along America's shores.

Merchant's Cargo pays tribute to those remarkable voyages with the timeless fragrance of Nag Champa—one of the world's most beloved and recognizable scents. Rich, warm, earthy, and comforting, it's a fragrance that has been cherished for generations and fills any room with a sense of calm, nostalgia, and quiet reflection.

Hand-poured in small batches using our signature blend of premium rendered tallow and natural beeswax, this candle offers a slow, clean burn with exceptional fragrance throw. The natural wax blend creates a warm glow while honoring the traditional craftsmanship that inspired our Trading Post Collection.

Whether you're relaxing after a long day, creating a peaceful atmosphere, or simply enjoying your favorite classic fragrance, Merchant's Cargo brings the unmistakable aroma of Nag Champa into your home.
