| | Volcanic charcoal | Explanation: Hi again, this is what the DRAE says:
"PICÓN: m. Canarias. Restos volcánicos que retienen la humedad". Also "picón volcánico", plenty of it there. So, I suspect this may be a type of "carboncillo" (charcoal) made with Canarian volcanic rock... but wait for experts to confirm or rubbish me.
