Description

Sawdust Charcoal (Ogatan) – VIP Grade Hardwood Briquettes 10KG

Intro

For those who take their grilling seriously, this VIP-grade sawdust charcoal, also known as Ogatan, delivers professional-level performance in every burn. Made from pure hardwood core with over 90% fixed carbon, these dense briquettes are slow-compressed and long-carbonised to create clean, steady heat and minimal ash. Perfect for open grills, yakitori, rotisserie, and low-and-slow sessions.

Key Features

  • Traditional Ogatan Craft: Produced using authentic Japanese-style methods for high density, long burn, and consistent performance.
  • Pure Hardwood Core: Made only from the densest inner wood fibres, never furniture scraps or softwoods, for cleaner flavour and stronger heat.
  • High Fixed Carbon (90%+): Burns hotter and longer, holding stable heat for over four hours per load.
  • Low Ash and Smoke: Refined sawdust filtering removes bark and impurities, leaving less than 3% ash for easier cleanup.
  • Solid, Crack-Resistant Structure: Each briquette is slow-pressed under high pressure, giving a heavy, durable finish that won’t crumble when dropped.

Q&A

A: Both. It’s favoured by restaurants for its consistency and by home BBQ enthusiasts who want reliable heat and authentic charcoal flavour.

What We Love

We love the craftsmanship behind this fuel. Every briquette feels engineered for performance, from the glossy finish to the solid sound when tapped. It lights steadily, burns evenly, and brings a calm, controlled rhythm to your cookups.
