[Material] This genuine bamboo chasen is a matcha tea utensil, carefully crafted by artisans. Combining the flexibility and durability of natural bamboo, it's ideal for whisking matcha, preparing matcha, and practicing tea ceremony. It's a basic tea utensil that beginners and intermediate practitioners can use with confidence.
[Product Specifications] It has approximately 100 bristles. This number is greater than the standard 64 or 80 bristles, allowing for a fine, delicate froth. Even beginners can easily create a fine froth, and it's also suitable for matcha lattes, cappuccinos, and authentic tea ceremony preparations. Approximately 6cm diameter x 11cm height (handmade, so slight variations may occur).
[Instructions for Use and Cleaning] When using for the first time, fill a tub or bowl with hot water (approximately 80°C) and lightly blanch the chasen (chasen-doshi) before use. After use, gently rinse with water, dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight, and store in a cool, dark place with minimal temperature and humidity fluctuations. Do not use in a dishwasher or dishwashing detergent.
[Versatile & Easy to Carry] The lightweight and compact design makes it easy to carry for tea ceremonies, entertaining guests, and matcha tea time at home, as well as when traveling, on business trips, or at tea ceremony events. It works even in limited space, allowing you to enjoy Japanese lifestyles more closely, from everyday use to special occasions.
[Perfect Gift] Suitable for a wide range of occasions, including matcha, tea utensils, and matcha gifts. It makes a wonderful gift for birthdays, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Respect for the Aged Day, housewarmings, and as a Japanese souvenir for overseas visitors.
