Chasen Bamboo Matcha Whisk

A chasen, tea whisk, is an essential tool that plays one of the most important roles in preparing delicious matcha. Crafted by hand from a single piece of bamboo, making a chasen is a delicate and time-consuming process requiring highly skilled craftsmen. Using sharp special knives, each whisk can have anywhere between 16 to 120 tines, the higher the number the less whisking is required to help incorporate the matcha in the water. It also helps aerate the tea, allowing oxygen to bring out its aromas while also reducing its bitterness, and creating a layer of foam that lends it a smooth, creamy texture. You can compliment it with our bamboo matcha scoop and bowl for the perfect set or gift.
