Clean-burning ethanol fire lighter

BCB FireDragon Gel is a viscous, non-flowing ethanol fuel gel that lights instantly from a match or fire steel. Made in Great Britain from 100% natural ingredients, including ethanol distilled from UK-grown grain, it burns with a clean, low-soot, near-colourless flame and almost no odour.

One gel, many uses

Squeeze it into a meths burner, multi-fuel cooking system or the BCB Crusader cook kit for a fast brew on the move. It also works brilliantly as a fire lighter for charcoal BBQs, wood burning stoves and getting damp kindling going.

Safe and easy to carry

The 500ml bottle features a flow-reducing insert and a child-proof cap, so you can drop it in your pack without the mess or risk of a loose fuel bottle. It lights in wind and wet, and you can blow it out and relight later to save fuel.

Age-restricted product
