## Description

Kishu Charcoal is the finest activated charcoal available - made by artisans in Japan using ancient techniques.

Review: I live in Los Angeles, but I am a born and raised New Yorker so I grew up with THE best tap water in the country (in my opinion!) - I've lived in SoCal for 8 years and have hated the water this whole time. When I read some of the Q&As on here about Kishu making SoCal tap tolerable, I had to try it. It takes a full 24-36 hours to filter out the nasty tap taste (I am a water snob), but holy schmoley I am in disbelief at how much better this water tastes than my Brita. It's still not as good as say, Crystal Geiser (again, I'm a snob) but it's pretty amazing and I am super impressed! I did a taste test side by side with Brita, Kishu, and CG, and the Brita was undrinkable compared to the last two. Definitely worth the money! I bought a giant 2-gal drink dispenser at TJ Max and just keep a pitcher in the fridge for cold water. If this thing can make SoCal tap drinkable, it can make any water drinkable. I am a happy customer.
Review: I was looking for an alternative to our wasteful Brita filters and this is perfect! we have the big pitcher with the spigot dispenser and this just sits right inside it and makes the water taste great! I just make sure to fill the pitcher up every night so the water will be filtered by the morning and it's great! we're on our second one and about to get our third next month. I love that one filter lasts 4 months and it's so easy to clean every month just by boiling it. I definitely recommend!

*by S***Z on 28 February 2024*

Finally! A decent water filter solution. Very effective!! I bought a 5 gallon jug with a wide mouthed spigot (you need to be able to fill it with a hose or ? And be able to get charcoal stick in/out of the opening. I use the xl filter. Every 4-5 months you’ll need a new one. Totally works for excellent tasting water.
