MATCHAWAN TSUKI
The Tsuki Matchawan (Japanese for “moon”) is a traditional vessel for preparing and drinking matcha. Its irregular ridges and grayish hue resemble the moon’s surface, inspiring its name. In Japan, a celebration dedicated to moon viewing in autumn is known as “Tsukimi.” The festival typically takes place in September, the best time of the year for moon gazing. Tsukimi offers an opportunity for families and friends to gather and spend time together. An essential part of the festival is a special meal known as “tsukimi ryoiru” and matcha tea. It is believed that consuming these during the festival brings good fortune.

MATCHA BAMBOO WHISK CHASEN
Traditional bamboo whisk or “chasen” is an indispensable tool of the Japanese matcha tea ceremony. The fine, handmade prongs are carved out in a single piece of bamboo. When using a chasen to whisk matcha it is best to keep a loose and relaxed wrist and make rapid zigzag motions in the shape of letter “W” or “M” – this helps to give matcha the ideal frothy texture.
WHISK HOLDER NAOSHI
The traditional matcha whisk holder is not only a beautiful element of the traditional Japanese matcha tea set. It is a very practical tool that helps your chasen dry faster and maintain its shape and durability.

MATCHA BAMBOO SPOON CHASHAKU
Chashaku is the traditional Japanese spoon for serving matcha and an integral part of the matcha tea ceremony. The curved portion of the spoon is used to scoop a small portion of tea and place in a bowl (matchawan). The mixture is then whisked to uniform consistency using a bamboo whisk (chasen). The amount of matcha served depends on individual preference. The thin tea or “usucha” is prepared with one or two chashaku of matcha and approximately 100ml of water.
