The Matcha whisk (Japanese: Chasen) is the most important tool for preparing authentic matcha tea. It is used to distribute the fine green tea powder evenly in the water and whisk it into a creamy foam.
This whisk is made from a single piece of bamboo and has around 80 fine bristles, which move gently through the tea water as you whisk. The result is a smoothly frothed Matcha, much as is appreciated in the Japanese tea ceremony.
How do you use the Chasen?
- Moisten the whisk: Soak in warm water before first use – this makes the bristles more supple and prevents them from breaking.
- Whisking the Matcha: Place 1–2 g Matcha in a bowl and pour approx. 70–80 ml of hot (not boiling) water over it.
- Whisk quickly: Using the Chasen, make ‘M’ or ‘W’ shapes with quick movements until a fine foam forms.
- Care: After preparation, rinse with water only, drain well and leave to dry in the open – ideally on a Chasen holder.
The Chasen is suitable for both classic usucha (thinly whisked Matcha) and koicha (thick Matcha). After use, the Chasen should only be rinsed with water and left to air-dry – ideally on a suitable Chasen holder so that it retains its shape. A true classic for anyone who wants to prepare Matcha properly – whether for everyday use or special occasions.
