Product Details

An indispensable tool for matcha lovers, this beautifully crafted bamboo whisk with 100 prongs is designed to create a smooth, frothy matcha. Handcrafted by skilled master craftsmen, it is made from genuine, eco-friendly dark bamboo, specifically grown for chasen making. Its natural dark color adds to the visual appeal of your tea ritual, a key element in Japanese tea ceremonies that celebrate beauty and simplicity.

The Strength and Beauty of Dark Bamboo

Made with authentic dark bamboo known for being strong and flexible, making them ideal for crafting chasen that need to withstand repeated use without breaking. Our Bamboo Whisk is adorned with a unique green string, signifying the unity between nature and the care put into its creation. Lightweight and preferred to preserve the flavor of quality matcha.

Effortless Whisking for Smooth, Frothy Matcha

Easy to use and built to last, this traditional bamboo chasen is perfect for preparing both thick (koicha) and thin (usucha) matcha. With 100 prongs, it effortlessly creates a rich, creamy froth for an authentic matcha experience. Measuring approximately 4.5 inches tall and 2.5 inches wide, with a 1-inch handle, it offers a comfortable grip for your preferred whisk style. The matcha whisk comes in a clear tube container, helping to maintain its shape when stored, ensuring long lasting performance.

Perfecting Your Matcha Whisking Technique

Before each use, soak the prongs in cold water for a few minutes, inspect the whisk for any broken prongs, and remove them if needed. Add your favorite matcha powder, pour in warm water (approximately 175°F/ 80°C), and whisk briskly in an “M” motion until rich foam forms. Over time, the whisk’s shape will naturally change as the curved tines gradually open and straighten with each use; this is expected. If used daily, consider replacing it every few months to maintain its best performance.

Preparation & Care

Traditional Usucha (Thin Tea) Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1-1.5 tsp high-quality matcha powder
  • 2-3 oz (60-90 ml) hot water (175°F / 80°C)

Equipment:

  • Matcha bowl
  • Bamboo matcha whisk (chasen)

Instructions:

  • Preheat your matcha bowl: Pour hot water into the tea bowl, swirl it around to warm the sides, then discard the water.
  • Add 1-1.5 teaspoons of matcha powder to the warmed matcha chawan.
  • Carefully pour 2-3 ounces of water (175°F or 80°C) over the matcha powder.
  • Using your bamboo whisk, whisk the matcha and water together in a zig-zag motion until a frothy layer forms on the surface.

Tip: The key to a perfect usucha is in the whisking! Whisk briskly and continuously until you achieve a smooth, frothy consistency with minimal lumps.

Remember: Making usucha is an art that takes practice. Adjust your Japanese green matcha powder and water quantities to keep the perfect balance and preferred taste.

Care Instructions

Rinse with warm water immediately after use to remove any matcha residue. Avoid using soap or soaking the whisk, as this can damage the bamboo. Shake off excess water and let the prongs air dry completely. To maintain its shape, store the whisk in a whisk holder and keep it in a dry place to prevent mold. Regularly inspect the prongs for signs of wear, and replace the whisk when they become brittle or start to break.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • The lifespan of a bamboo whisk depends on usage and care. With regular use, it typically lasts a few months. If used daily, consider replacing it every 2–3 months or when the prongs become brittle, break, or lose their shape. Proper care, such as rinsing after use, air drying completely, and storing in a dry place, can help extend its lifespan.

  • The prongs of your bamboo whisk naturally open and straighten over time due to repeated use and exposure to water. This is a normal process and does not affect its functionality. As the whisk softens with use, the knot at the base gradually loosens. While this change is expected, replacing your whisk when the prongs become too spread out or brittle will ensure the best matcha preparation experience.

  • To keep your high-quality chasen in top condition, always rinse it thoroughly with warm water after each use and avoid using soap. Shake off any excess water and let it air dry completely before storing. For the best results, place the whisk in a dry, well-ventilated area, ideally on a whisk holder, to help it retain its shape and dry properly. Avoid storing your chasen in a closed or humid space, as trapped moisture can lead to mold growth.

    Our ceramic whisk holders, available in two classic colors, are designed to support air drying while keeping the delicate tines in place. This helps extend the whisk’s lifespan so you can continue making frothy matcha with ease.

  • A glass or ceramic whisk holder is great for maintaining the shape and longevity of your bamboo whisk. It helps preserve the natural curve of the bamboo tines, preventing them from deforming too much over time, which ensures consistent and effective whisking. Allowing the whisk to air dry in an upright position helps with proper drying, reducing the risk of mold caused by excess moisture. Storing your whisk on a holder also minimizes contact with surfaces, keeping the matcha tea whisk clean and extending its lifespan.
