While the charcoal-making process is usually kept under wraps, the Kingsford factory in Belle, Mo., sometimes offers tours, including to local elementary school children.

Years ago I took a tour of the Jack Daniel Distillery in Lynchburg, Tennessee.

They showed us how they make their own charcoal for their filtering process.
