Today, there are several major konro (shichirin) production centers, including Mikawayaki, in the city of Hekinan, Aichi Prefecture, Japan. Kameshima Seitojo produces konro in a wide variety of colors and shapes, including rounds and rectangles, and because they are made in the Neri Shichirin, they are made efficiently by kneading and molding the clay.
As a yakitori grill, the Sumibi-Yakitori Konro is purpose-built for the slow, even heat that skewered meats and vegetables require. Its diatomaceous clay walls retain and radiate the near-smokeless heat of binchotan charcoal with exceptional consistency, making it a reliable japanese charcoal bbq grill for both professional cooks and dedicated home enthusiasts who want to bring authentic robatayaki technique to the table.
