Details
Product Overview:
Eko Grey (410g) is a firm favourite among clay lovers—rich in crunch, smoky by nature, and rooted in earthy depth. This Nigerian smoked grey clay is well-loved for its clean break and satisfying chew, offering a bold yet refined flavour profile. Expect chunks ranging from 2 to 15 cm, hand-broken for easy handling and a consistent bite.
The experience begins with a strong, dry crunch that quickly gives way to a smooth, dissolving texture—no grit, no lingering residue. The signature smoky taste leads the way, underpinned by damp earth notes and subtle hints of sweetness or lemon depending on the batch. There’s even a faint rain-on-cement aftertaste that adds a unique finish.
Whether you're new to Eko clays or returning for that unmistakable smoky satisfaction, this variety delivers a robust, deeply mineral crunch with a clean, polished feel.

Storage Tips
To keep your clays and treats fresh, crunchy, and full of flavour, always store them in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from moisture, humidity, and strong odours. Exposure to air or dampness can alter both texture and taste.
We highly recommend using our stash boxes, available on the website — designed specifically to protect and organise your clay collection with ease.
Handling Guidelines
- clean, dry hands.
- wooden spoon included with your order
Fragility Disclaimer
All clay treats and terracotta pot products are handmade and naturally fragile, making them susceptible to breakage during delivery.
While we take great care in packing each item securely, minor cracks, chips, or crumbled pieces may occur. This is a natural part of working with handcrafted clays and does not affect taste or enjoyment.
To help, every order includes a wooden spoon — ideal for enjoying broken pieces or powder just as deliciously as the whole form.
