Traditional Japanese Charcoal
Binchotan charcoal is high-grade charcoal and is prized for its natural way to purify water for a great taste. Charcoal has been used in Japan to naturally improve water and air for centuries.
Natural and Environmentally-Safe
Binchotan charcoal sticks are an entirely natural and plastic-free option. Enjoy each glass of water more while doing something good for the environment.
Reuse and Recycle
Depending on the water used, each charcoal stick will last for about three months. After that, it can be used as a natural deodorizer, dehumidifier, or recycled into plant soil.

I purchased this after my water filter broke and it’s just disappointing that this didn’t work for me. I put 2 charcoal sticks in a 1/2 liter bottle and didn’t filter so as directed, I boiled it again and it still didn’t filter. Because it was not filtering my water, I decided to add 4 sticks into the 1/2 liter bottle after boiling and drying as directed and still didn’t filter. Will not be repurchasing

I use these in pitchers in my house to replace plastic filters. They effectively take away some of the taste of tap water and give us fresher cleaner water to drink.I also love to keep one in my water bottle!

I love these for water purification, and they can be expensive bought in health food stores. I now have enough for three years in one purchase and it came right to my doorstep in two days!

City water can be hard to take after the treatment that makes it safe to drink. Here’s a surprising remedy — reusable activated charcoal sticks made from bamboo. In about 4 hours it transforms tap water by removing chlorine and other stuff. The result is delicious spring-like water and the charcoal can be used repeatedly when you boil it after several usages. This image shows a stick doing it’s magic in a milk bottle I recycled. Ippinka Activated Binchotan Charcoal — find it on Amazon!

This is my first experience with using a charcoal filter. I was skeptical at first but charcoal is used as a filtration material all the time so I gave it a try. I am amazed at how well it works! The flavor of my water has greatly improved. This product is easy to use and plastic free!

So far they seem to be working really well. They remove the chlorine smell from my drinking water. Cannot say if it removes anything else as I cannot test that. Sure hope it would.

I like these and they work well, but one stick in the pack was too big to fit in my water bottle, and they're super hard so i couldn't really make it smaller.

These work for me! I recently moved and my current apartment's tap water is horrid, it tastes like straight chlorine! Blah, so I started researching ways to purify my water naturally while keeping it budget friendly. Brita is nice but it takes up fridge space and the filters are costly over the years plus I do not like the plastic containers. Home filtration systems are probably the best bet but they are very costly upfront and require installation and I am not going to waste that on an apartment so the next best thing was carbon block filtering but again they are kinda expensive ($200 +) and take up a lot of counter space! So I wanted a smaller version were I can use my own glass dispenser and these fit the bill. I used 4 sticks in a 2 gal glass water dispenser and the water quality has improved drastically (it's not completely chlorine free but for the price it is perfect)! Follow the instructions and you will be on you way to more natural, purer tasting water. Final goodie point is that they are eco friendly and biodegradable so if you have a garden after there 3 month use you can put them in the soil to add natural carbon back into it.
