The charcoals have no smell when they are completely lit. Expect some specific smells when you light the charcoals. You can use a gas lamp or your stove (make sure you always keep an eye on them).Because of its dimensions (27mm), you can smoke 2 rounds of shisha flavors, instead of one session with the smaller ones.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant - but do read instructions for lighting!

This is definitely a case where it is worth reading the manufacturer’s instruction prior to using this charcoal. I had planned to sit back and watch a film with a relaxing shisha pipe, instead I found I spent the entire 90 minute length of the film trying, and failing to get this charcoal lit. I was all set to write a bad review when I scanned over the Bolo product page and finally saw the instructions to actually light it directly from a kitchen hob. I am pleased to say, this technique changed everything. 5 minutes or so on my electric hob and I had a nice glow going and was able to enjoy my shisha, was very easy to do in the background as I cooked some dinner too. These are quite chunky coals and although I used 2, I suspect a single one would have served very adequately for a single session as it burned for absolutely ages. This means that, at £17.99 at time of review for a surprisingly weighty box of 104 coals, they are great value. I have not tried them for BBQ or anything else, but now that I know how to get them started they will be perfect for shisha sessions and I am very impressed.

Quality of charcoal is top, lasting easily over 60mins but a bit pricey for me

5.0 out of 5 stars Great For Keeping The Fire Going

I have a small barbeque and tend to use the lightable bags you can get from your local supermarket, for ease of setting up a small garden dinner. What I've noticed, however, is that the fires can burn for variable amounts of time and can result in undercooked food or only being able to cook a small amount.I got these bricks as a top up for said bags, and they work perfectly. It's been a while since I've started a barbeque up from scratch, so I can't speak to how easily these are to start de novo, but as a top up they work brilliantly after the fire has reached a good heat. It gives more control over how long the fire goes on for and allows me to cook with confidence more than just a couple of sausages.
