Crafted for the Everyday Ritual

Beautifully crafted, the ceramic bowls in this collection reflect the spirit of Japan, with patterns and forms rooted in traditional design. Each one holds up to 16 ounces, ideal for matcha tea preparation, and feels balanced in the hands. The glaze brings out natural variations in color and texture, making every matcha chawan distinct. These pieces are made for daily use but bring a stunning aesthetic that stands out on any shelf or tea tray. Whether you're marking a special moment or enjoying your daily ritual, our matcha green tea sets bring authenticity and care to the experience.

Tools That Make the Practice Easy

Each matcha kit includes a traditional bamboo matcha whisk, known as a chasen, along with a ceramic whisk holder designed to support both the form and function of the whisk. The whisk is carved from golden bamboo and features 100 fine tines crafted to create a smooth, frothy matcha. It's flexible enough for daily use, with a shape that helps build a consistent texture as you whisk.

The ceramic holder isn't just a place to rest your whisk; it plays a key role in keeping it in good condition. Its shape supports the tines from the inside out, helping the whisk retain its original form as it air dries. This natural drying process prevents moisture from collecting at the base, which can lead to mold or warping over time. Together, the whisk and holder form a practical pairing that helps you enjoy the traditional process of matcha preparation while fitting easily into modern use.

Simple to Use, Easy to Care For

The ceramic used for both the matcha chawan and the matcha whisk holder is high quality and made to last with proper care. These pieces are microwave and dishwasher-safe, bringing convenience to your routine without sacrificing tradition. The bamboo whisk that completes the set is crafted from eco-friendly golden bamboo and contains no added anti-mold chemicals, just clean, natural material. It's designed to help you prepare your tea with ease while keeping your setup simple and free of unnecessary additives. All the matcha accessories in the set are built for regular use, with thoughtful details that support both comfort and reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right matcha bowl for me?

Choosing the right matcha bowl (chawan) depends on how you plan to use it and what feels right in your hands. A good matcha bowl should be wide enough for whisking (typically 4.5 to 5 inches across), with a rounded base that allows the whisk to move freely without scratching. For beginners, a bowl that holds around 12 to 16 ounces is ideal, giving enough room to whisk without spilling. Look at the thickness and texture of the ceramic matcha bowl, too. Thicker walls retain heat better, while textured exteriors offer a comfortable grip. Glaze and color are personal choices: some prefer earthy, rustic finishes, while others enjoy smooth, minimalist glazes or hand-painted patterns that reflect Japanese traditions.

Can beginners use a complete matcha set, or is it just for experienced tea drinkers?

Absolutely, complete matcha sets are perfect for beginners. They're one of the easiest ways to get started with matcha at home. A traditional matcha set usually includes a bowl (chawan), bamboo whisk (chasen), bamboo scoop (chashaku), and a whisk holder, all the essential tools needed to prepare a proper cup.

Using the complete set helps you learn the correct technique from the start, including how to scoop, sift, and whisk the green tea matcha to achieve that smooth, frothy layer. Each piece is designed to work together, making the process feel intuitive and enjoyable even for someone who's never made matcha before.

You don't need to be an expert to use these tools; they're made for everyday use and are just as suited for curious beginners as they are for seasoned tea drinkers.

How do I care for my matcha whisk and prevent mold?

Proper care of your matcha whisk (chasen) is key to maintaining its shape and preventing mold. After each use, gently rinse the whisk with warm water to remove any matcha residue. Once cleaned, place the whisk on a tea whisk holder to air dry naturally. This allows the bamboo tines to dry evenly and helps maintain their flexibility. It's essential to let the whisk dry in an open space, away from direct sunlight, to prevent excess moisture from being trapped. Storing the whisk in a closed, damp environment can lead to mold growth or warping, so always ensure it has adequate airflow.

What's the best way to store matcha powder for freshness?

To keep your matcha powder fresh and preserve its vibrant green color and umami flavor, store it in an airtight container, ideally one that blocks out light. Exposure to air, heat, and moisture can cause matcha to lose its flavor and nutritional value over time. A dark, cool place is best, such as a pantry or cupboard away from direct sunlight.

For extra freshness, you can refrigerate your matcha, but make sure it's in an airtight container to prevent moisture from affecting the powder. If you store it in the fridge, allow it to come to room temperature before opening, as condensation can form when cold matcha meets warm air. This will help maintain its quality for a longer period.

What is a traditional matcha recipe?

Traditional Usucha (Thin Tea) Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1-1.5 tsp high-quality matcha
  • 2-3 oz (60-90 ml) hot water (175°F / 80°C)

Equipment:

  • Matcha bowl
  • Bamboo matcha whisk (chasen)

Instructions:

  • Preheat your matcha bowl: Pour hot water into the tea bowl, swirl it around to warm the sides, then discard the water.
  • Add 1-1.5 teaspoons of matcha powder to the warmed Matcha Chawan.
  • Carefully pour 2-3 ounces of warm water (175°F or 80°C) over the matcha powder.
  • Using your bamboo whisk, whisk the matcha and water together in a zig-zag motion until a frothy layer forms on the surface.

Tip: The key to a perfect usucha is in the whisking! Whisk briskly and continuously until you achieve a smooth, frothy consistency with minimal lumps.

Remember: Making usucha is an art that takes practice. Adjust your Japanese matcha powder and water quantities to find the perfect balance and preferred taste.
