One Leaf, One Encounter

[Material] This bamboo tea whisk is a matcha tea ceremony tool made from bamboo, meticulously crafted by artisans. Combining the flexibility and durability unique to natural bamboo, it's ideal for whisking, preparing, and practicing matcha. It's a basic tea ceremony item that can be used with confidence by beginners to intermediate users.

[Product Specifications] It has approximately 100 bristles. This is more than the standard 64 or 80 bristles, allowing for a finer, more delicate foam.

Approximately 6cm in diameter x 11cm in height (slight variations may occur due to handmade nature).

[Usage and Cleaning] When using for the first time, fill a basin or bowl with approximately 80°C water and lightly rinse the whisk (bamboo whisk rinse) before use. After use, gently rinse with water, dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight, and store in a cool, dark place with minimal temperature and humidity fluctuations. Dishwasher and dish soap are not permitted.
