Handcrafted from a single piece of bamboo, this whisk is essential for making perfect matcha.

Each chasen has its own handle, prong number, prong shape and are designed for specific uses.

The Kazuho Chasen is ideal for matcha making beginners who want a slimmer handle for easier grip and light whisking

The 80 prong chasen is ideal for users who prefer a more robust grip and the extra prongs create extra air to allow for more frother matcha to develop.

With two options available you can select the best chasen for your matcha making journey.

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)

  1. Add 2 scoops of matcha powder to your tea bowl or cup.
  2. Pour around 70ml of not quite boiling water into the tea bowl.
  3. Whisk the matcha with the chasen for about 15 seconds until smooth and slightly foamy.
  4. Relax and enjoy!
