  • One of the rarest, but most incredible charcoals you can cook with
  • Light density so loves to get hot but a great all-round charcoal
  • Amazingly light to the touch and the bag is full to the very top – a lot for your money!
  • Not ideal for your low and slows but amazing for all round, open flame barbecuing
  • Fast lighting – no waiting around so you can get cooking!
  • Clean burn, low smoke, no hissing or popping with low ash residue
  • As it’s made from a fruit tree, there is a very subtle sweetness to the smoke
  • No chemicals, ever
  • Very fast to light – no starters required
  • Made from regeneratively harvested British wood
  • Suitable for all grills where open air cooking is ideal
  • Sustainably produced in Cambridgeshire by the Stag Fire Wizard!


*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!

  • Great with beef

  • Great with pork

  • Great with fish

  • Great with vegetables

  • Great with cheese

  • Great with fruit

Wild cherry is used as a nursery tree to help draw up other hardwood species so it’s only available when larger areas of forest are cleared, and cherry has been utilised for growing.  Super, super rare, this charcoal delivers a mild sweetness that complements heartier cooks and matches perfectly with chicken, venison, lamb and duck.  A perfect winter charcoal – quite possibly!

Flavour Profile

One of the only charcoals that we say in its purest form when burnt alone, delivers a notable flavour. Delivers a delicious and subtle sweetness that complements heartier game cooks so ideal with venison, duck and pheasant. Outstanding if used to roast a chicken (go naked and roast without anything – utterly delicious)!

Origins & Production

Stag Charcoal works in partnership with Abington Sawmill & local woodland owners to source timber suitable for conversion into British charcoal and other charcoal derived products that can be found in this store, under the "Stag Charcoal" brand. The name "Stag" was chosen because traditionally the stag has been the “King” of the forest and our guiding values and ethos is that British Charcoal is the best.
