Shisha charcoal, also known as hookah charcoal, is the essential heat source that brings the flavorful world of shisha smoking to life. It is a specially designed type of charcoal that heats the flavored tobacco (shisha) in the hookah bowl, creating the vapor that is then smoked. Unlike the charcoal briquettes used for grilling, shisha charcoal is specifically formulated to be odorless, long-lasting, and to produce a consistent, manageable heat that enhances the shisha's flavor rather than overpowering it with a smoky taste.
the composition of shisha charcoal is a key factor in its performance. Generally, it is made from natural, carbon-rich materials that are processed to create clean-burning coals. The most popular and widely regarded raw material is coconut shell. These natural charcoals are favored for their ability to produce a steady heat output and minimal ash.
Accordingly, coconuts are widely used in Sri Lankan homes for cooking purposes, and we burn those discarded coconut shells to create high quality coconut shell based charcoal briquettes for the shisha smoke experience.
Chami Coco Coconut Shell Shisha Charcoal is specially crafted for smooth, flavorful, and long-lasting hookah sessions. Made from 100% natural coconut shells, these premium briquettes deliver clean heat with zero chemical additives—perfect for shisha lounges, cafés, and home users.
