Natural, authentic and handmade, the Binchotan charcoal acts as a 100% natural filter. Buy it loose and without a label to play your part in actively reducing waste. One more step toward our waste reduction goals!

Activated charcoal has been used in Japan since the 17th century. It comes from the Wakayama region and is still handmade according to the ancestral method of carbonization and activation, in a traditional oven.

It is made from branches of Uba Megashi oak, a highly dense tree, and choosing these trees is essential to guarantee the quality of the charcoal sticks.

The surface of the charcoal stick attracts and binds impurities in the water. As a result, you will notice the taste of the water is greatly improved. This natural filter makes tap water more palatable, you will be surprised after you have tasted the difference they make.

We have selected an independent French laboratory* to regularly test samples of the Binchotan Charcoal stics we sell to ensure the quality of these. Combine a charcoal stick to Ceramic beads in your water jug for an uncomparable synergy, and refreshing experience.
