About the Gresco Brand - What Is This Walnut Charcoal
Gresco is walnut hookah charcoal produced from walnut shells by pressing at high temperatures. No binding agents, no chemicals - only walnut shells. That is why Gresco belongs to the category of organic and eco-friendly hookah charcoal with minimal impact on tobacco flavour.
The main feature of Gresco and all walnut charcoals is soft delicate heat. Unlike coconut charcoal, which delivers high and stable temperature, Gresco walnut charcoal heats tobacco gently without drying it out. This is especially important when working with light and flavouring mixtures, where overheating destroys aroma and taste.
Gresco is popular among Ukrainian hookah enthusiasts who want a clean session without bitterness and with maximum tobacco flavour development. The brand is consistently present on the Ukrainian market and receives positive feedback from both home users and hookah establishments.
Key advantages of Gresco charcoal:
- Soft even heat - does not dry out the tobacco, reveals the aroma
- Natural composition - only walnut shells, no chemicals or additives
- Very low ash content - less than 3%, minimum ash on the bowl
- Long burning time - 55-75 minutes on one load
- Neutral smell when burning - does not overpower the tobacco taste
- Dense pressed cube - does not crumble during transportation and storage
- Ideal for light tobaccos, flavouring and fruit mixtures
Gresco is organic charcoal from renewable raw materials. Walnut shells are a by-product of the food industry, therefore the charcoal is produced with a minimal carbon footprint and is considered an eco-friendly product.

Gresco vs Mind vs Coco White - what is the difference between walnut charcoals
In the Smokyloot catalogue there are three brands of walnut hookah charcoal. All three are natural charcoal from nut shells without chemicals. The difference lies in the details that matter for fine heat management tuning.
Gresco - the most popular walnut charcoal in the catalogue. Produced from walnut shells, it delivers very soft and delicate heat. Ash content less than 3% - one of the best indicators among all hookah charcoals. An excellent choice for those who work with light and flavour tobaccos and value session purity.
Mind - walnut charcoal with slightly higher heat output compared to Gresco. The softness of walnut heat is retained, but the temperature is a little higher - a good option if you want to combine the delicacy of walnut charcoal with sufficient heat for medium packs.
Coco White - light-coloured walnut charcoal with particularly low ash content. Despite the name, this is walnut, not coconut product. Popular among hookah enthusiasts who value clean burning and minimum ash on the bowl.
If you are choosing walnut charcoal for the first time - start with Gresco. It is the most balanced in all parameters and performs well with a wide range of tobaccos. Want to compare - all three brands are in stock on the site.
Gresco vs coconut charcoal - when to choose walnut
One of the most common questions is how Gresco walnut charcoal differs from coconut charcoal and when each should be used.
Coconut charcoal - for example Monster Coco or Tom Coco - provides high stable heat. This is a universal choice for dense packs, strong tobaccos and long sessions in hookah lounges. Coconut charcoal burns a little longer - 60-80 minutes versus 55-75 minutes for Gresco.
Gresco and walnut charcoal in general are the choice for delicate sessions. The soft heat does not dry out the tobacco, which is particularly important for light fruit and flavour mixtures. Many experienced hookah enthusiasts keep both types and switch depending on the tobacco and mood.
How to Properly Light Gresco Walnut Charcoal
Gresco is pressed natural charcoal without chemicals that cannot be lit with a lighter or matches. An electric stove with an open coil or a special charcoal lighter is required. Incorrect lighting is the main cause of bitterness in the hookah.
Step-by-step lighting of Gresco:
- Place Gresco cubes on the heated burner or lighter
- Heat for 3-4 minutes on one side until glowing edges appear
- Flip with tongs and heat the other side for another 2-3 minutes
- The charcoal is ready when covered with even grey ash on all sides
- Place the heated cubes on the bowl or in the heat manager
- Let the hookah warm up for 1-2 minutes before the first puff
Gresco is free of bitterness with proper heating. If the hookah is bitter - the charcoal is under-heated or there is too much on the bowl. Gresco walnut briquettes heat up a little faster than coconut - monitor even grey ash on all sides before placing on the bowl.

Frequently Asked Questions about Gresco
How long does Gresco walnut charcoal burn?
A 25 mm cube burns 55-65 minutes, a 26 mm cube - 60-75 minutes, a 40 mm cube - 70-85 minutes. Exact time depends on air supply intensity and hookah type. One Gresco load is enough for a full session without additional charcoal.
Why does Gresco walnut charcoal cause bitterness?
Three main reasons: insufficient heating of the charcoal, too many pieces on the bowl, or too intense heat management. Natural Gresco walnut charcoal without chemicals does not cause bitterness - provided it is fully heated to even grey ash on all sides. Gresco heats up slightly faster than coconut - monitor carefully.
What is the ash content of Gresco?
Gresco charcoal ash content is less than 3% - one of the best indicators among all hookah charcoals. Minimum ash remains on the bowl, simplifying maintenance and not affecting tobacco taste during the session.
How does Gresco differ from coconut charcoal?
Gresco is made from walnut shells and provides softer delicate heat than coconut charcoal. Coconut charcoal burns a little longer and delivers higher temperature - it is better suited for dense packs and strong tobaccos. Gresco is ideal for light and flavour mixtures where overheating kills aroma. Both types are natural charcoals without chemicals.
How many pieces of Gresco in 1 kg?
In 1 kg of Gresco 25 mm cubes - about 96-100 pieces. 26 mm cubes - 88-96 pieces per 1 kg. The 96-piece package is the most popular retail format for home use, enough for approximately 30-50 sessions.
Can I buy Gresco in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Odesa, Dnipro and Lviv?
Yes, we deliver across Ukraine by Nova Poshta and Ukrposhta. Delivery time is 1-3 working days depending on the city. Payment on receipt or online. Details on the contact page.
How to store Gresco walnut charcoal?
In closed packaging in a dry place. Moisture is the main enemy of pressed charcoal: damp Gresco cubes lose density, light poorly and may crack when heated. Do not leave open packages in damp rooms - bathroom, kitchen near the stove.
For which tobaccos is Gresco best suited?
Gresco is ideal for light and flavour tobacco mixtures, fruit and berry flavours, where it is important not to overheat the tobacco and preserve delicate aroma. For strong and dense tobaccos that require high heat, coconut charcoal is better. If unsure - Gresco suits most popular tobaccos and is a safe choice for any session.
