Product Details
Product Details
Matcha preparation has a rich tradition, dating back to its origins in Japanese tea ceremonies and its presence in everyday kitchens around the world. While there are quicker ways to enjoy it, the right tools can bring out the full texture and flavor of this vibrant green tea powder. This set is designed for that very purpose. If you've been a matcha enthusiast for a while and are ready to upgrade or expand your collection, this thoughtfully curated set is perfect for you.
Traditional Bamboo Whisk
Made from golden bamboo and crafted by expert craftsmen, this matcha whisk is designed for matcha lovers who value both tradition and convenience. With 100 fine tines, it blends matcha into a smooth, creamy bowl with no clumps and just the right amount of froth. It's measured for comfort, so it fits naturally in your hand and moves effortlessly through the bowl. The bamboo is entirely natural, with no additives or anti-mold coatings, just untreated, authentic bamboo. Using a traditional bamboo matcha whisk also means preserving the delicate taste of matcha. Unlike metal or plastic, it doesn't interfere with the flavor, allowing the grassy, umami-rich notes to come through clean and clear.
Matcha Bamboo Scoop
The bamboo spoon, known as the Chashaku, is a small but essential tool in the world of matcha. Used for centuries in Japanese tea ceremonies, it's shaped to scoop just the right amount of matcha powder for a single bowl. Its gentle curve is designed to lift matcha smoothly from the matcha container to the matcha bowl, keeping the portion consistent and the ritual grounded in intention. Made from a single piece of natural bamboo, it's free of any coatings or additives and carries the same clean simplicity that defines a good bowl of matcha.
Stainless Steel Spoon
Stir your matcha with ease using this stainless steel spoon, perfect for creating a smooth, clump-free mixture with an even texture and vibrant color. It works especially well for cold drinks like iced matcha or smoothies, where you can just mix the matcha into milk or water before shaking or blending. In the kitchen, it's a reliable tool for scooping matcha green tea into recipes like pancakes, cookies, or dressings, offering clean handling and consistent results every time.

- Chasen (bamboo matcha whisk)
- Chashaku (bamboo scoop)

- Stainless Steel Spoon (To stir & taste)
Instructions
- Preheat your matcha bowl: Pour hot water into the Chawan, swirl it around to warm the sides, then discard the water.
- Measure 1–1.5 teaspoons of matcha powder using a Chashaku (bamboo measuring scoop) into the sifter to break clumps.
- Add the sifted matcha powder to the warmed matcha bowl.

Classic Matcha Latte Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon Matcha Green Tea Powder
- ¼ cup hot water (160–180°F)
- ¼ cup warmed choice of milk (soy, cashew, coconut, or any milk of choice)
- Optional: sweetener of your choice (to taste)
- Optional: vanilla bean or cinnamon (for added flavor)
Instructions
Prepare the Matcha
- Measure one teaspoon of matcha green tea powder using a Chashaku (bamboo scoop) into the sifter to break clumps.
- Sift the matcha powder into a large mug or ceramic matcha bowl (Chawan)
- Add hot water to the matcha. Using a matcha whisk (Chasen), whisk briskly in an up-and-down motion for about 30 seconds until the mixture becomes frothy.
Add Milk
- Pour warm milk over the frothed matcha tea. Stir the latte using the stainless steel spoon.
- Taste and adjust flavors by adding vanilla, cinnamon, sweetener, or additional water or milk as desired.
Blender Method (Alternative)
- If you don't have a whisk, combine milk, matcha powder, sweetener (e.g., honey or agave nectar), and vanilla in a blender. Cover and blend on high until the mixture is creamy and frothy.
Cold Latte Option
Add the ingredients and a handful of ice to a jar for an iced matcha latte. Cover and shake vigorously until well combined.
Tip for the Perfect Latte
Water Temperature: Keep the water between 160–180°F to avoid a bitter, burnt taste. A good tip is to let your kettle boil and cool for a few minutes before adding it to the matcha powder.
Enjoy your creamy, flavorful Matcha Latte!
Care Instructions
Bamboo Matcha Whisk
Rinse your traditional matcha whisk under warm water immediately after use to remove any remaining matcha. Avoid using soap or dishwashers, as they can damage the natural bamboo and affect its shape over time. Gently shake off excess water and place the whisk on a whisk holder, if you have one, to help it keep its shape as it dries. If you don't have a matcha whisk holder, dry it handle-side down to allow air to circulate around the tines. Store in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or moisture.
Bamboo Matcha Scoop
Gently wipe the bamboo matcha tea scoop with a dry or slightly damp cloth after each use to remove any matcha residue. Avoid washing it under running water, soaking it, or using soap, as moisture can cause the bamboo to warp or crack over time. Keep it in a dry, well-ventilated space, away from humidity and direct sunlight. Since the chashaku is made from natural, untreated bamboo, it's best handled with clean, dry hands and stored flat or upright in a container to maintain its shape.
Stainless Steel Spoon
Caring for your stainless steel matcha spoon is simple. After each use, rinse the spoon under warm water or wash it with mild soap and a soft sponge. Handwashing the spoon helps maintain its finish over time. Dry it thoroughly to prevent water spots. Store in a dry place, and avoid using abrasive scrubbers that can scratch the surface.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a bamboo whisk and an electric frother?
What's the difference between a bamboo whisk and an electric frother?
A bamboo whisk (chasen) and an electric frother both mix matcha with water, but they work very differently and give different results. A Japanese matcha whisk is the traditional tool used in Japanese tea ceremonies; it is designed to mix matcha thoroughly while creating a smooth, frothy surface without clumps. The shape and number of tines help create that creamy texture while also allowing you to control the motion of whisking.
An electric frother is quicker and more convenient, especially for busy mornings or when making lattes, but it may not blend the powder as evenly or create the same delicate froth. It's also harder to control the consistency, and clumps can form if the matcha isn't sifted properly beforehand. For those who enjoy the full matcha-making experience and better texture, the bamboo whisk is usually the preferred choice.
Can I use matcha in recipes other than tea?
Can I use matcha in recipes other than tea?
Yes, you can absolutely use matcha in recipes beyond tea. Matcha is a versatile ingredient used in everything from smoothies and lattes to baked items, desserts, and even some savory dishes. For cooking and baking, culinary grade matcha or cafe grade matcha is typically the best choice; they have a stronger flavor that holds up well when mixed with other ingredients. If you're making drinks like matcha lattes or iced matcha, café grade matcha is a great option. It's a matcha that's smooth and flavorful, ideal for both baristas and home use.

Can I put my matcha accessories in the dishwasher?
Can I put my matcha accessories in the dishwasher?
It depends on the type of matcha tea accessory. Bamboo accessories, such as the chasen (whisk) and chashaku (scoop), should never be put in the dishwasher, as heat and moisture can cause them to crack, warp, or grow mold. Instead, rinse with warm water and let them air dry completely. Ceramic accessories, like the matcha bowl (chawan) and whisk holder, are usually dishwasher-safe, but hand washing is recommended to preserve their glaze and longevity.
How long does a bamboo whisk last?
How long does a bamboo whisk last?
The lifespan of a bamboo whisk depends on usage and care. With regular use, it typically lasts a few months. If used daily, consider replacing it every 2β3 months or when the delicate tines become brittle, break, or lose their shape. Proper care, such as rinsing after use, air drying completely, and storing in a dry place, can help extend its lifespan.
