Bamboo tea whisk from China • approx. 68–74 tine chasen

Handcrafted from bamboo, this whisk is designed for preparing thin tea. The bamboo, known scientifically as *Phyllostachys edulis* or Moso Bamboo, is a temperate giant timber species native to China.

This high-quality, user-friendly tea whisk is perfect for beginners, as even those with little experience can quickly achieve a thick and smooth foam. It’s lightweight and flexible. Unlike traditional Japanese versions, the base is not as tightly bound, which enhances flexibility and ease of use, though it may wear out more quickly. Nevertheless, it offers great value for its price and is an excellent tool for daily matcha preparation.
