Charcoal

Why it's different

Sealed rolls light fully and burn evenly. Controlled ignition means no popping, no ash storm, just clean heat for the oud.

Sizes

Large, medium, and micro rolls cover the mabkhara, hosting, and travel. There's also a barbecue range where the use case calls for it.

Packaging

Tins are made to keep the charcoal sealed between uses. They look right on the shelf and protect the product.

How to use it

How to light it

  1. 01

    Set the roll in the mabkhara

    Place a sealed Passage roll on the burner. The metal tin keeps each roll sealed until you need it.

  2. 02

    Light one edge

    Hold a flame to a corner until it catches. Controlled ignition means it lights fully without popping or an ash storm.

  3. 03

    Wait for the glow

    Let the roll glow through before you add oud. A clean, even burn is what carries the scent.

  4. 04

    Add the oud

    Place a piece of scented oud or mamool on top. The room scents in minutes.

Questions

Good to know.

Why sealed rolls instead of loose charcoal?

Sealed rolls light fully and burn evenly. The seal keeps each roll dry between uses, so it catches cleanly every time.

Which size should I buy?

Large and medium rolls suit the mabkhara and hosting. Micro rolls are sized for travel. The barbecue range is a separate use case.

Does it work with any oud?

Yes. Oud only burns as well as the charcoal under it, so clean charcoal gives the best result with any oud or mamool.
