Suikaen "Shin" Traditional Takayama Chasen – Handcrafted Japanese Bamboo Matcha Whisk

Crafted in Takayama, Ikoma City, Nara Prefecture, the historic birthplace of Japanese bamboo tea whisks, this Suikaen "Shin" Traditional Chasen represents generations of master craftsmanship.

Produced by the renowned Suikaen (翠華園) workshop under the Tanimura Yasaburo family, each whisk is meticulously hand-carved from a single piece of carefully selected bamboo using techniques that have been preserved for centuries. The workshop is recognized as a traditional manufacturer dedicated to preserving the historic craft of Takayama chasen production.

Designed for preparing ceremonial and premium matcha, the finely crafted tines create a smooth, creamy microfoam while evenly blending matcha powder with water. The result is a rich, balanced cup with an elegant texture, making it ideal for traditional Japanese tea ceremonies as well as everyday matcha preparation.
