Building the ritual? The Ritual Kit · $109 gathers the bowl, whisk, scoop and stand in one box.

The whisk is the ritual. A hundred fine prongs, hand-carved from a single piece of bamboo, move air through the matcha until a smooth foam settles on top — something no metal whisk or frother does quietly.

Green-tipped prongs on a natural bamboo body, carved to draw a real foam from the first bowl.

Duties included for US orders.

Details

  • 100-prong bamboo chasen, green-tipped
  • Carved from one piece of bamboo
  • Ships in a protective form box

How to use

  1. Soak the prongs in warm water for a minute before first use to soften them.
  2. Whisk briskly in a "W" motion, from the wrist rather than the arm.
  3. Ease off as the foam builds, lifting to the surface to refine it.

Materials & care

Rinse warm after each bowl — never soap — and let it dry on its holder so the curve keeps its shape. With daily use, a chasen is a companion for a season, not a lifetime: expect to replace it every three to six months, the way it's been done for centuries.
