Kameeldoring African Sun Dried Logs
The wood starts with ultra low moisture content due to the lack of water in it's habitat and the job is finished off by the unforgiving African sun!
Packed in clean, easy to handle 20kg (approximately) large polypropylene sacks.
Benefits of this ultra low moisture content, ultra dense, ultra beautiful African firewood include:
Amazing long burn times, virtually zero smoke production, no wasted energy burning off extra moisture and the very best return in calorific value terms that money can buy - the 20kg bag is roughly equivalent to 3 or 4 large nets of seasoned domestic firewood due to it's density, heat output and longevity!
The common name Camel Thorn is loosely translated from the Afrikaans name Kameeldoring, coming from kameelperd (giraffe). Early South African settlers gave the tree the moniker of Kameeldoring (giraffe thorn).
Giraffe are this trees best friends, they have adapted to cope with the trees many thorns and choose it as one of their favourite foods.
Our Kameeldooring firewood is responsibly cropped with governmental co-operation with local landowners and farmers.
Our firewood is taken from the branches that fall from the trees due to their exceptional weight. Axes must be seriously sharp to split this firewood!
Kameeldoring burns with minimal flame, a musky aromatic fragrance and creates serious amounts of charcoal This is a superb cooking wood, is perfect for fire pits and chimneas and has exceptionally long burn time!
Due to the desert like climatic conditions kameeldoring has a moisture content of almost zero - you are therefore buying almost no moisture - only super dry, super dense firewood!
Beautiful African firewood now available in the UK!
