*The purchase of each bag of British charcoal secures our forests, woodlands and the beasts that live within for future generations.  We do this together, one bag at a time.Unnecessary charcoal imports are damaging tropical ecosystems and polluting the planet, not to mention the humanitarian impacts in some territories.  We need to burn British!

Our first ever Apple charcoal and we have a very limited stock - so snap this up as it is unlikely to return - unless Ryan from Crwys finds another Apple tree in need of some TLC.

This is rarer thank a breakdancing ewe and you know as soon as you open the bag this is going to deliver super delicate sweet notes - try and only smoke with complementary apple wood or cherry as you do not want to mask the sublime flavours.

If you have ever seen an Apple tree you know it is gnarly and knotty and the dense wood means that this charcoal will burn for an age in a Kamado or kettle - going hot and fast or low and slow - it doesn't get any better than this.

The lump size is a good variety of sizes so suits any kind of barbecue - we only wish we had more!

Flavour Profile

Applewood delivers a delicate sweetness that is incredible with white meats or fish - one of our favourite fruit tree varieties!

Origins & Production

Crwys charcoal is expertly made from trees coppiced from their 21 acre small holding in Monmouthshire, deep in the Welsh valleys.
