The Aki tea cup, featuring a palette of beige, green, and brown with hand-painted leaf motifs, comes from the heart of Japan’s Aichi Prefecture. Inspired by traditional Japanese ceramics and the beauty of nature, each cup is carefully handcrafted on a potter’s wheel, giving it a truly unique character. The delicate painted leaves add charm and individuality, inviting your mind and soul into a serene natural world with every sip of tea. Handcrafted Aki is not only a beautiful piece but also a highly practical vessel.
The traditional way to prepare matcha comes from the Japanese Tea Ceremony. It involves using a matcha bowl, a bamboo whisk- chasen and a bamboo spoon- chashaku.
Place 2 chashaku spoons of matcha (1,5g) in a matcha bowl and pour 100ml of hot water (80 °C). Chasen in hand, vigorously whisk your matcha from the wrist in m-shaped, not circular, motion. In about 20 seconds your bowl should be filled with a perfect jade-green foam. You can add more water now if you like your matcha to be less strong.
