Dense charcoal from northern Colombia

Guayacan trees are originally from the forests of northern Colombia. Their main characteristic is their high density: it is the heaviest charcoal in the world, and one of the best in quality. To recognise a guayacan charcoal, just look at the shine on the tips of the lumps.

It burns for a long time, with white ash and no spark. That is why it works for shisha and hookah, and also for restaurants and barbecue. It is very popular in the Middle East and in North America.

Its quality is certified by laboratories at origin. In a single container we load around 28 tonnes.
