- Kalutika: These are a mid grade natural coal that I dont mind using when I am out of my favorite coals. I find that they give me a bit of a headache and have a tendency to split apart or crumble toward the end of their life but otherwise they aren’t bad.

- Kalutika: I have used these in the past and I am not a huge fan of them. I prefer natural coals to QLs but these are decent in a pinch. Much better than a lot of other QL coals.
