Bamboo broom

The matcha broom - Japanese Chasen - is indispensable for the traditional tea ceremony. This bamboo broom with about 80 bristles is probably the most commonly used matcha broom. It is equally suitable for all Japanese powdered teas. It can be used to whisk Matcha as Usucha (thin tea, approx. 80ml water per 1g Matcha) as well as Koicha (strong, thick tea, approx. 10ml water per 1g Matcha). It is suitable for beginners and professionals alike.

The chasen are handmade from a piece of bamboo. Here, an experienced person needs about two hours for the production of a single bamboo whisk from the first to the last step. The piece of bamboo is split again and again with a sharp special knife.

Chashaku

A chashaku is a specially shaped bamboo spoon for dosing matcha powder and is part of every traditional Japanese tea ceremony. It is carved from bamboo and bent into its characteristic spoon shape by hand using steam with great patience. Unlike a metal spoon, a bamboo chashaku does not become statically charged. This allows the matcha powder to glide from the spoon into the matcha bowl with almost no residue.

As long as the bamboo spoon does not get wet, it can be easily wiped with a clean and dry cloth after use. However, if the chashaku got wet and dirty, it should be rinsed under clean running water without detergent, wiped with a cotton cloth and then still air dried. This prevents the matcha powder from sticking to the bamboo spoon.


Both bamboo whisk and bamboo spoon were each made from one piece of bamboo and are completely compostable.

The cultivation of bamboo is sustainable and resource-saving due to the low water consumption and the absence of pesticides. Unlike slow-growing trees, the bamboo plant does not die when its culms are cut down but regenerates from the underground widely branched root system. In addition, bamboo is the fastest growing raw material (in the peak up to 1 meter a day).
