It can be used over and over, and then acan be returned to the earth where the benefits continue. What is special about Kishu Binchotan? Kishu charcoal is made from Japanese Holm oak, which grows on the forested hills of Kii peninsula. Oak trees are not logged, but instead branches are cut off selectively leaving the tree alive and healthy. To make Kishu Binchotan charcoal, oak branches are stacked inside kilns and baked at super high temperatures over several weeks. Oxygen is then shut off and turned on again and its flow slowly increased. This centuries old process turns wood into carbon, and at up to 98%, Kishu Binchotan charcoal has the highest content of carbon of any charcoal, making it one of the purest and highest quality charcoals available on Earth. Here are four ways to use Kishu Binchutan around the home.EXPLORE MORE TOPICS
