An all-natural, hardwood lump charcoal kiln-fired at Flying Leap's winery estate from retired wine, whiskey and brandy barrels. The old barrels are disassembled, and the oak staves are cut into chunks. They are then loaded into Flying Leap's charcoal kiln, which is fueled using scrap wood, cardboard and grapevine bagasse. The oak chunks are roasted in the kiln for 24-48 hours, then allowed to cool. The final charcoal is weighed, sorted and loaded into 2-gallon buckets. It has a unique, intensely-aromatic cooking flavor with clean, long burning. A truly unique and wonderful artisanal charcoal for the barbecue enthusiast to savor.
