There comes a time when the ridges turn gold, the hollers hold their breath under the changing leaves, and the air smells of wood-smoke and spiced orchard harvests. That rich moment is what we captured in Autumn in the Holler — a 16 oz mason jar candle, hand-poured in our signature coco-soy wax blend by Blue Ridge Whispers, crafted to bring the mountain’s fall into your home.
Picture walking the old logging road, leaves crunching under boots, the breath of the hollow deepening, the sun golden through the pines. The top notes open with crisp fallen leaves, tangy green apple, and a whisper of orange peel — lively, brisk, like that first chill wrapping around the porch. The heart warms into spiced cider, cinnamon bark, and clove, echoing the kitchen where the kettle steams and laughter drifts in. Finally, the base settles into the comfort of cedarwood, smoke-hollow embers, and soft vanilla bean — grounding the fragrance in the hearth where you pull your boots off and settle in.
Because we choose a coconut-and-soy wax blend, you’ll experience a clean, even burn and full fragrance throw that fills your room with mountain autumn—rich but never overbearing. In the wide-mouth 16 oz mason jar, you get that old-time farm-house feel, the kind of jar that once held preserves and now holds your moment of fall.
Light Autumn in the Holler when you want the world outside to slow, when you’re gathering around the fire, when the windows show ridge lines at dusk, or when you simply craved the feeling of autumn in the holler. Hand-poured with Appalachian heart, this candle is more than wax — it’s a story of change, of leaves, of home, of mountain stillness.
Bring the ridge home. Let the scent of crisp leaves, orchard harvest, spiced hearth and wood-smoke wrap your space like the foothills at sunset.
