The Kazuho Chasen is a traditional Japanese bamboo whisk crafted for serious matcha preparation. With its curved, pointed tines and broader design, this whisk is not only ideal for kneading dense koicha (thick matcha) but also excels at producing a richer froth compared to regular whisks. To use it at its best, pair it with a proper matcha chawan (tea bowl)—most standard household mugs and bowls will be too narrow for its wide sweep.

What Makes It Special?

  • Curved, pointed tines → Designed for kneading and smoothing thick matcha.
  • Broader build → Covers more surface area for a smoother blend and creamier froth.
  • Superior frothing → Produces a thick, stable foam even in usucha (thin matcha).
  • Hand-crafted → Each whisk carved from a single piece of bamboo by artisans.

How It’s Different from a Regular Chasen?

  • Regular Chasen: Straight, slender tines for everyday whisking and thin froth.
  • Kazuho Chasen: Broader, curved, pointed tines for superior froth and smooth koicha.
  • Requires a larger matcha bowl to use comfortably—an authentic chawan is recommended.

Who Should Buy This Whisk?

  • Matcha enthusiasts who want café-style froth or ceremonial-grade preparation.
  • Tea ceremony practitioners making both usucha and koicha.
  • Collectors and connoisseurs who want a whisk that feels special and performs differently.
  • Anyone looking to elevate their matcha ritual beyond standard whisks and household bowls.

Care Tips

  • Soak in hot water for 2-3 minutes before first use to "bloom" the chasen.
  • Soak in hot water for 30 seconds before every use
  • Rinse with warm water right after use — never use soap
  • Dry and store on a kusenaoshi (whisk holder) to retain its open, curved shape; Dry in a well ventilated area.
  • Use only in wide-mouth tea bowls to protect the delicate tines.
