    Our chasen "Tabo" is a tea whisk made from a single piece of bamboo. It has 80 bristles, which will fluffen up your matcha tea easily, providing you stir it properly :P. Made by Japanese craftsmen.

    "Tabo" means turbo in Japanese, so please whisk as fast as possible :)

    Other essentials for making matcha tea are:
    "A Chawan" Ceramic bowl for matcha preparation
    "A Chashaku" which is a bamboo tea ladle used for scooping powdered tea/Matcha into a tea bowl.

  • Made in Japan

Inside Story

How to whisk like a PRO!

1) Heat the Chawan (bowl) and the Chasen (A chasen is a tea whisk made from a single piece of bamboo) with very hot water, discard the water after about 1 min.

2) Sift 1-2 tsp of Matcha tea through a fairly fine strainer - this creates smoother foam and prevents lumping.

3) Pour roughly 60 ml of 75 C water over the tea and whisk (from bottom to top in "W" - like motion) when the foam begins to form, raise the whisk carefully.

Enjoy!
