Premium White Chasen (Bamboo Whisk)
A premium bamboo whisk crafted from a single piece of high-quality, bamboo, ensuring a unique, eco-friendly whisk with every creation.
This shin chasen with its durable prongs is ideal for matcha makers of any status. The high number of prongs helps aerate the matcha to create a thicker texture or foam to be enjoyed.
Made in Japan and comes in its own elegant paper box, this dark bamboo whisk elevates the matcha ritual further.
How to Make Perfect Matcha:
We recommend you use not quite boiling water, around 80°C works well.
If you are using a chashaku (a Japanese bamboo teaspoon) we recommend 2 scoops, or 1 scoop from an ordinary teaspoon (approx. 1.5g)
- Add 2 scoops of matcha powder to your tea bowl or cup.
- Pour around 70ml of not quite boiling water into the tea bowl.
- Whisk the matcha with the chasen in an 'M' shape for about 15 seconds until smooth and slightly foamy.
- Relax and enjoy!
To keep your chasen in the best condition, we recommend you soak the prongs in cold water for at least a few minutes before each use.
Rinse in hot water after use. You can also wash in soapy water every now and then.
Comes in its own paper box.
Bamboo is a natural material and can split if it is dried out. Store in a cool place.
