A traditional bamboo whisk for preparing matcha tea with all the trimmings. The whisk is made of light bamboo wood and has 100 bristles.
The traditional bamboo whisk, or "chasen," is an indispensable tool in the Japanese matcha tea ceremony. The fine, hand-crafted bristles are carved from a single piece of bamboo. When using a chasen to whisk matcha, it is best to keep your wrist loose and relaxed and make quick zigzag movements in the shape of the letters "W" or "M" – this helps to give the matcha its ideal foamy texture.
Not dishwasher safe.
Do not place the wet whisk in a cardboard box or other closed container, but always dry it gently first.
