Pistachio Charcoal - Hexagon

Pistachio charcoal, also known as pistachio briquette charcoal or pistachio shell charcoal, is one of the most important types of charcoal for Iran and many Arab and Eastern countries. This charcoal is specifically used for hookah (shisha) preparation. In addition to its use in hookah, it is also utilized for incense in Middle Eastern countries. This type of charcoal is well-known for its use in both hookah and incense in Arab countries.

Pistachio charcoal briquettes are produced when the shells are partially burned, resulting in a conversion of most of the material into carbon (85-98%). In other words, the pistachio shells are subjected to a process that removes water and gases, leaving behind a solid structure composed primarily of carbon-rich pistachio shell material.

Then, they are pressed with special devices and produced in the form of hexagons. It should be noted that the high-quality and world-famous Iranian pistachio shells are only one of the key components in the production of pistachio charcoal

Features of Pistachio Carbon Briquettes:
Hexagonal pistachio charcoal is an economical option and it's ignites quickly, transforming into glowing embers in a short time. This type of charcoal is characterized by its long burning duration, and most importantly, pistachio carbon is free from smoke, taste, and harmful gases. Unlike other types of charcoal, it does not cause headaches, nausea, or other side effects.

When Ramses pistachio charcoal reaches the point of complete ignition, its heat is evenly distributed from the center. This allows the burning process to occur uniformly throughout the charcoal, eliminating the need to rotate it from one side to the other.
