Ogatan is made from hardwood sawdust pressed into long logs, then carbonized. Because every log has the same profile, it burns at a predictable rate and is easy to portion.
We supply hexagonal and square profiles. Cut pieces of 5–7 cm suit table grills; longer sticks suit larger grills. Grade B is the same charcoal broken naturally instead of cut.
