Why whisk your matcha with a bamboo whisk? 🍵
There’s a reason the traditional bamboo matcha whisk (chasen) is still the go-to way to prepare matcha.
Made from fine bamboo tines, the whisk helps break up clumps of matcha and evenly suspend the fine tea powder throughout the water. This creates that smooth, creamy texture and beautiful layer of froth on top.
Unlike stirring with a spoon, whisking with a bamboo chasen creates hundreds of tiny movements that properly incorporate the matcha, rather than leaving powder sitting at the bottom of your cup.

For the best cup, sift your matcha into a bowl, add a small amount of hot (not boiling) water, then whisk briskly in a “W” or “M” motion until frothy. Add more water, whisk again and enjoy.
