A poor chasen produces flat, clumpy matcha no matter how good your powder is. This 100-prong bamboo chasen is handcrafted using traditional Japanese techniques — including low-fire roasting at the waist to strengthen the bamboo and extend its lifespan — so it creates the smooth, frothy consistency that matcha is supposed to have.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Japan, the chasen is considered the most essential tool in the tea ceremony. The number of prongs matters: 100 fine tines create far more surface contact with the matcha than cheaper 80-prong or 60-prong alternatives, which means better aeration, a finer foam, and a more evenly mixed bowl. Japanese tea masters have used handcrafted bamboo whisks like this for over 500 years because the material is naturally flexible, gentle on ceramic bowls, and produces a result that no other tool can replicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 10cm x 5.5cm, it's the right size for a standard matcha bowl and easy to store on a whisk holder between uses. Whether you're new to matcha or upgrading from a lower-quality whisk, this chasen will make an immediate, noticeable difference in your cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural bamboo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProngs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 fine tines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10cm × 5.5cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handcrafted with traditional low-fire roasting for added durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIdeal for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Daily matcha prep, tea ceremony, pairing with a whisk holder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAfter contact with water, the outer tines may curve slightly — this is completely normal and characteristic of all authentic bamboo whisks.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Leche","offers":[{"title":"Light Yellow","offer_id":50971678212132,"sku":"14:200006153","price":40.0,"currency_code":"ILS","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/2461\/0596\/files\/Sed723b2db1c044e4be52b2e5246eaba7d.webp?v=1782014544","url":"https:\/\/lechegaijin.com\/products\/japanese-ceremony-bamboo-chasen-100-matcha-green-tea-powder-whisk-tea-brush-kitchen-accessories-tea-tool","provider":"Leche Gaijin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
