Char from Moers, in Germany (5)
I believe the answer is:
singe
'char' is the definition.
(I know that singe is a kind of char)
'from moers in germany' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'SINGE' is hidden in the letters of 'moers in germany'.
(Other definitions for singe that I've seen before include "slight burn" , "Burn superficially" , "Char, scorch" , "Burn slightly on surface" , "Scorch lightly" .)
