Bamboo Charcoal Sablé

Crafted by hand in London using premium bamboo charcoal powder imported directly from Japan, our Bamboo Charcoal Sablé cookies are as visually striking as they are subtly delicious. Naturally jet black with no artificial colouring, these crisp sablés are made from all-organic ingredients and deliver a light texture with a clean, refined flavour.

Bamboo charcoal has long been valued in Japan for its natural detoxifying properties. Rich in minerals and known for supporting digestion, it's more than just a trend—it’s a time-honoured ingredient with modern appeal. Whether you're looking for something health-conscious or simply stunning, this unique cookie is ideal for gifting, sharing, or savouring on your own.

Tea Pairings

These sablés pair beautifully with Japanese teas that highlight or contrast their subtle flavour:

• Yame Matcha Latte – Creamy and sweetened, this matcha latte complements the sablé’s clean, earthy finish.
• Organic Genmaicha – Its roasted rice and fresh green tea notes enhance the charcoal’s natural minerality.
