Matcha Preparation Set, all seven pieces of the traditional ritual in one gift box. Chawan, chasen, chashaku and the rest, ready for proper usucha.

Overview

This set covers the full traditional workflow: a ceramic chawan for whisking, a bamboo chasen that builds fine foam, a chashaku for measuring, a holder that keeps the whisk's shape, a sifter to kill clumps before they start, and serving pieces to finish. It works for daily home preparation and makes an unembarrassing gift.

Key features

• Complete 7-piece traditional set
• Ceramic chawan (matcha bowl)
• Bamboo chasen whisk for fine, even foam
• Bamboo chashaku measuring scoop
• Sifter for clump-free matcha

How to use

Sift one or two chashaku scoops into the chawan, add water at 70 to 80C, and whisk briskly in a W motion until a fine foam forms. Rest the chasen on its holder afterwards so it keeps its shape.

Why we love it

Matcha clumps without a sifter and sulks without a real whisk; this box solves both at once. The red chawan also happens to look better than most things on the shelf around it.
