Shin Chasen – Traditional Japanese Matcha Whisk

For Smooth, Authentic Matcha Every Time

The Shin Chasen is a high-quality matcha whisk made from a single piece of natural bamboo, designed for creating perfectly smooth and frothy matcha. With its balance of flexibility and structure, it’s ideal for preparing both usucha (thin tea) and koicha (thick tea), making it a staple for any matcha lover’s toolkit.

Features

Made from natural dark bamboo
Approximately 64–80 finely cut tines for optimal whisking
Designed to produce a creamy, lump-free froth
Comfortable grip and balanced handling
Durable and long-lasting with proper care

How to Use

Before your first use, soak the chasen’s tines in warm water for a few minutes to soften the tips and prevent breakage. When preparing matcha, use a zig-zag "M" or "W" motion to create a fine, even foam.

Care Instructions

Rinse gently under warm water after each use
Do not use soap or put in the dishwasher
Let it air dry naturally, using a whisk stand (chasen-tate) can help retain its shape

Why It Matters

Using a proper chasen isn’t just traditional, it genuinely improves the texture, taste, and visual quality of your matcha. Whether you’re new to matcha or refining your daily ritual, the Shin Chasen offers precision, performance, and beauty in every whisk.
