The story

The tools that make matcha work

Matcha is fussy. Unlike other teas, you cannot just pour hot water over leaves and walk off. The powder needs whisking, properly whisking, to turn it from gritty sludge into something smooth, frothy and worth drinking. A fork will not cut it. Neither will a spoon, a milk frother or sheer determination.

This set contains the three tools used in Japanese tea preparation for centuries: a wide ceramic bowl that gives your whisk room to move, a bamboo chasen with fine tines to aerate the tea, and a curved bamboo scoop for measuring. Simple, effective, unchanged because nothing works better.

If you have been making matcha in a regular mug with whatever was in the drawer, this is your upgrade. If you have never made it at all, this is where to start. The bowl is generous at 400ml, so there is space to whisk without splattering green powder across the worktop.

Good questions

Things people ask us in the shop

Do I really need a bamboo whisk for matcha?

For proper matcha, yes. The fine bamboo tines aerate the tea and break up lumps far better than a fork or regular whisk. It is the difference between frothy and grainy.

Can I use this bowl for matcha lattes?

You can whisk your matcha in the bowl, then pour it into a mug and top up with steamed milk. The bowl is for preparation rather than drinking large lattes from.

How do I look after the bamboo whisk?

Rinse it under warm water after each use, no soap, and let it air dry on its tines or a whisk holder. Do not leave it sitting in water or it will lose its shape.

Is the set suitable for a complete beginner?

Absolutely. It contains the three core tools and nothing else. Add your matcha powder and water and you are ready to learn.

What matcha should I use with this set?

Any matcha powder works. Ceremonial grade gives the smoothest, sweetest result. Culinary grade is fine for lattes or baking. Start with what suits your budget and taste.

FAQs

Do I need special equipment to make matcha?

For the best results, yes. Matcha is whisked rather than brewed, and the bamboo whisk helps create the smooth texture and delicate foam that traditional matcha is known for.

What is the bowl used for?

The ceramic bowl provides enough space to whisk the matcha properly without spilling while allowing the tea to develop a smooth, even consistency.

Is this suitable for beginners?

Absolutely. This set contains the core tools needed to begin preparing matcha at home using traditional methods.
