For the casual matcha tea drinker, a reasonably priced chasen, or bamboo tea whisk is a must. The whisk allows you to froth up a bowl of matcha tea while breaking apart clumps.

This is actually a miniature version of the bamboo whisk for use with mini-bowls used in outdoor tea ceremonies.

Whisk Guide

The "Number" represents the approximate but not exact number of prongs, and the more prongs, the more froth or foam it produces. However, this is not an indication of better quality as some schools of tea ceremony frown upon froth. The biggest school of tea ceremony, Urasenke, teaches that an even level of froth is desirable, and so this has become standard among non-practitioners.

Shape: The shape of this whisk is made according to Urasenke standards with the tips of the prongs curled inward.
