Bamboo spoon "Chashaku" made of white bamboo

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. As a result, the matcha powder glides from the spoon into the matcha bowl almost without 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.

The bamboo spoon was made from one piece of bamboo and is 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).
