Acacia charcoal from Namibia

The best African charcoal from Namibia for shisha (hookah), restaurant and BBQ uses.

Acacia charcoal from Namibia is a high quality hardwood lump charcoal. It is known for its excellent performance as fuel in grills and ovens, and for its low environmental impact.

It is made from acacia trees, a species common in the semi-arid regions of Africa. The trees grow abundantly in Namibia, and in some areas they are considered invasive. Making charcoal from them also helps to manage the environment, because it reduces the spread of these trees.
