Where to buy Bincho charcoal in LA

[tchad]

Does anyone know where Bincho (Bincho-tan) charcoal can be purchased in LA? I'm willing to drive pretty much anywhere. Mitsuwa doesn't have it and the online retailer Murayoshi doesn't have a working email so I'm at a wall. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure that Marukai on Artesia in Gardena used to carry it. I haven't been in literally a couple of years, but they might be worth a try.

Thanks for the tip. They had it, at a price of course--$12.95 for a kilo.
