Chasen — Bamboo Matcha Whisk
The traditional bamboo whisk, cut from a single piece of bamboo into fine tines that break up the powder and draw air through the tea. Nothing else gives matcha the same soft, even foam.
Rinse in warm water only, never soap, and let it dry tines-up so it keeps its shape.
Our matcha is stone-ground in Ise, in Mie Prefecture — one of Japan's most respected tea regions, with more than eight hundred years of tea-growing history. We work directly with the farmers who grow it, and every batch is certified JAS Organic.
Matcha is shade-grown and stone-ground, with a bright, vegetal sweetness and a natural energy lift. Hōjicha is roasted, mellow and low in caffeine, better suited to the evening. Many keep both on hand.
Keep matcha sealed, away from light, heat and moisture. Refrigerate after opening and use within 4 to 6 weeks for the brightest flavor and color.

From Ise, Japan
Our matcha and hōjicha come from Maruei, a family producer in Ise, Mie Prefecture, working in direct partnership with local farmers. Tea from the Ise region was historically offered to Japan's imperial court. Every harvest is JAS Organic certified, shade grown, and stone ground in small batches.
