Grey alder

Grey alder (Alnus incana) Northern Europe’s finest smoking wood — Traditionally the choice for smoking fish, meat, and vegetables — clean burn, balanced aroma, and unmatched versatility. The backbone of our grill pellets.

ORIGIN & SUSTAINABILITY

Renewable by nature

Grey alder thrives along rivers, forest edges, and open countryside — growing fast, regenerating naturally, and enriching the soil through nitrogen fixation. Unlike slow-growing hardwoods that take decades to harvest, grey alder is a genuinely renewable resource, obtained through regular forest maintenance that supports healthy and balanced woodlands.

WOOD & FLAVOUR GUIDE

Choose the Right Wood

The type of wood you use defines the flavour of your food. Our grill pellets are made from carefully selected hardwoods, each offering a unique smoke profile and cooking experience.

CLEAN · MILD · VERSATILE

A traditional Northern European hardwood, grey alder is known for its clean-burning properties and balanced smoke. It produces a very mild, slightly sweet flavour that enhances food without overpowering it.

SEET · LIGHT · AROMATIC

Apple wood is a classic fruit wood, valued for its gentle, slightly sweet smoke. It adds a soft fruity note that pairs especially well with lighter meats and longer cooking sessions.
