Bamboo Matcha Whisk

$27.00

Whisk your way into an age-old Japanese tradition! This elegant whisk, also known as a chasen, is hand-carved from a single piece of sustainably sourced bamboo. It's 120-prongs, the most a chasen can bear, allows air to circulate optimally while whisking your matcha tea. This technique creates a velvety consistency and super smooth, creamy froth.

Whisking up a smooth matcha tea is easy:

  1. Sift Ā½ tsp. matcha powder into bowl.
  2. Pour 60ml (2oz) hot water onto the powder. For best results use water just under a boil.
  3. Whisk thoroughly in a "M" or zig-zag motion for 15-20 seconds until your matcha tea forms a frothy layer.
  4. Add more hot water to desired taste.

The art of the chasen.

The bamboo whisk, or chasen, has been an essential tool in Japanese tea ceremonies since the 15th century. It was developed in the Muromachi period to gently blend matcha into a smooth, frothy tea ā€” symbolizing harmony, respect, and centuries of craftsmanship.

Your mini guide to matcha whisks.

Purple bamboo is a naturally darker variety of bamboo, giving the whisk its warm brown to purple-toned appearance. It performs just like a traditional natural bamboo whisk, with the difference being primarily aesthetic.

A 120-prong whisk helps incorporate air more efficiently, creating a smoother matcha with a finer, creamier layer of froth.

With regular use and proper care, a bamboo whisk can last several months. Some wear and breakage of the delicate prongs over time is completely normal.
