Shisha Natural Charcoal – Coconut Coals for Long-Lasting Hookah Sessions
Natural Hookah Charcoal in the Aladin Shishashop
Natural charcoal for the shisha is our recommendation to enjoy the best possible taste and smoking experience. In our assortment you will find natural charcoal from different raw materials and in different sizes. Most often the shell of the coconut is used for the production of natural charcoal, often also called coconut charcoal. To ignite natural coal you need a coal burner, but the coal glows much longer than a quicklight coal.
We recommend the use of an electric heater or, for outdoor use, a gas burner to ignite the coal.
In our online store you can buy your coal, as well as a heater and other accessories.

Why natural charcoal for hookahs?
It simply does not work without!
For every Hookah smoker indispensable, the natural charcoal.
But why natural coconut charcoal and not self-igniting charcoal?
Even with the best hookah, the highest quality head and the tastiest tobacco, you will never have such a smoking experience with self-lighting charcoal as with natural charcoal!
Made without chemical additives from coconut husks, it offers you a long burning time, super smoke development and brings no inherent taste with it.
An important factor in natural charcoal is the carbon content. This is usually 80%-85% and determines both the heat and ash content of the coal as well as the smell. The higher the carbon content, the more heat it can give off and at the same time has a lower ash content. However, a higher carbon content is also accompanied by a stronger odor.
Furthermore, natural charcoal stands for environmental friendliness. The coconut as a basic product is a renewable raw material, for which no deforestation or the like must take place. In addition, the end product is completely natural, which of course also brings advantages in terms of health, compared to self-igniting coal.

The only disadvantage with natural charcoal is ignition. Since there are no easily flammable additives, such as magnesium or black powder, natural charcoal can not be lit with a standard lighter.
Rather, you need an electric charcoal lighter or a gas stove including gas cartridge.
Types, forms & manufacturers of natural charcoal
Hookah charcoal is available in a wide variety of designs. Small or large, in the form of cubes or hexagons, and of course from different brands.
The most common variety are cubes with a size of 26mm x 26mm x 26mm.
An example of this is the TOM COCO C26 natural coals. With 64 cubes per kilogram and perfect fit for each attachment, they are one of the absolute best sellers. However, Blackcocos and Cocobration are also absolute professionals in their field and for this reason also very popular with customers.
More experienced Hookah smokers also like to reach for the 27 or 28 sizes to have a larger margin for the heat.
