Bamboo whisk for matcha

The bamboo whisk (chasen) has been used for centuries to whip matcha tea, which is the only way to achieve its creamy, frothy texture. The bamboo whisk is a fundamental part of the Matcha ceremony. The chasen is made by hand, the bristles are carefully cut from a piece of bamboo and then shaped. Only specially trained craftsmen master this art. The knowledge is passed down through generations. It is not possible to make the bamboo broom for Matcha by machine, which makes each one very special.

This bamboo whisk has 80 bristles.
