Best solid wood charcoal I've bought in years.
Worth it. Took a gallon size bag of this camping and the charcoal lasted nearly five hours. A little goes a really long way. The sound when you knock them together is like glass tinkling. Very dense, heavy, and easy to light in a chimney. I'm definitely purchasing again.

A Must for Searing
This is a must when you need a very hot grill to sear things like a steak. It's hard to believe how hot it gets and it would burn for a very long time. Fortunbatly Bincho Grills has a great stainless canister that snuffs out the charcoal very quickly so I'll likely get several uses of each piece of the Binchotan Charcoal.

Some Popping. Good Alternative.
On a price per pound basis, this is a good alternative to the higher grades of Japanese binchotan. I didn't have a way to measure the heat, but I don't believe it got as hot as the more expensive grades, which was not a problem. People still loved the food and I'll buy another box. There was a bit of popping on some of the sticks, which probably indicates a bit of moisture in some of the pieces. There was very little smoking once the coals got hot and there was no foul odor. The charcoal was a mix of sizes, ranging from small scraps about the size of a pinkie finger to larger chunks of about 7" long x 3" diameter.In summary, this is a perfectly acceptable alternative to the oak tree Japanese binchotan. I think I may experiment by adding a bit more than with the Japanese product and will be more aggressive about rotating hot coals. I'll update my review after using the next box.

Poor quality
Poor quality. I have used binchotan for many years mostly ordered from Korin but they’ve not as available. Ordered these as a last ditch substitute but basically would not stay lit. Regret ordering these.

The real deal.
I'd been using the thaan charcoal for a while now which is inexpensive and works ok. However the bricks are not reusable and I hated wasting the product. These are definitely an investment, but you're going to get a consistent burn, and the pieces can be used over and over again until they are truly spent. I think in the long run you can end up saving money using these as opposed to single use thaan style charcoal.
