Matsuba Binchotan (Pine-Based) – Japanese Compressed White Charcoal (3KG)

Made from pine materials, this charcoal has a distinctive aroma and lights more easily than traditional hardwood binchotan. It offers steady heat for grilling or general cooking, and can be used on its own or mixed with authentic binchotan.

Although the box labels it “binchotan,” it differs from Tosa or Kishu types made from ubame oak. Instead, it is produced by compressing pine charcoal powder, which may lead to variations in ash, burn time, and aroma. This makes it a cost-effective, easy-to-light option while still delivering reliable performance.

  • Uniform shape and consistent heat
  • Easier to ignite than genuine binchotan
  • Steady burn, good for mixing with real binchotan
  • Differences in scent, ash, and burn time
  • Budget-friendly while maintaining good performance

Made in Japan.

What is Pine-Based Binchotan?

Pine-based binchotan is made from compressed pine materials rather than hardwoods like ubame oak. It retains the white-charcoal finish but offers distinct characteristics, including a pine aroma and easier ignition.

The hollow-centered design improves airflow, promoting faster ignition, steady heat output, and efficient combustion—setting it apart from classic Tosa or Kishu binchotan.
