Japanese Handmade Long Black Bamboo Matcha Whisk

This Chasen is a masterpiece of Japanese craftsmanship, carved from a single piece of bamboo with a high degree of skill. Each whisk features 80 evenly balanced and finely shaped fronds, ensuring a smooth and frothy matcha every time.

This bamboo whisk chasen is made by Mr. Sabun Kubo the descendent of 24 generations of chasen artisans. It is designed for whisking matcha in a cup or mug instead of a matcha bowl so that you can easily enjoy matcha tea or matcha latte at home. It is made from a local black bamboo that is dried for 2 years. 100% natural and chemical-free.

Black bamboo has softer, more flexible fibre than white bamboo and this helps to protect against cracking. The high density of black bamboo makes it especially difficult to carve, but produces a beautiful chasen that lasts longer than those made of other bamboo. This characteristic, along with the number and design of the strands is particularly helpful in dry climates..
