MayaSticks are made from Pino de Ocote stumps, a fatwood pine cultivated in the highlands of Guatemala and Mexico. With their 80% resin content, MayaSticks are easy to light, even when wet and produce an extremely hot flame. Use 1-2 sticks to quickly light your fire or BBQ. Don't build your fire with noxious fumes or harmful chemicals. Use the time-honored, organic method. A technique that resembles the centuries-old art of the native fire-builder. From the heart of the ancient Mayan Empire comes the remarkable product known as MayaSticks.
