Artisanal Whisk

Excellent whisk, very fine finish, lightweight and very pleasant to use.

Since I got it, there's been a huge difference compared to a cheap, traditional whisk. The froth forms more quickly, without large bubbles. The froth is smooth.

Thank you for this chasen.

An artisanal masterpiece from the Hirata family

Manufactured Entirely by hand by Hirata-san and his father, Japanese master artisans, this exceptional chasen combines tradition, precision, and passion. Passed down from generation to generation, their ancestral know-how is based on techniques that are 500 years old. Each whisk, rare and precious, is carefully crafted to offer shinari – this unique flexibility which can only be achieved by human hands.

Highlights

  • Excellente qualité
  • Artisanal fabriqué au Japon et à la main par Hirata-san et son père
  • Bambou noir avec 5 fils en 3 nuances de vert
  • Dispose de cette flexibilité unique appelé "Shinari"
  • Seulement 10 pièces produites par jour
  • Boite protectrice en plastique dur, protection garantie

According to Hirata-san’s father, a master artisan of chasen (matcha whisk),

“The taste and enjoyment of matcha depend on the quality of the chasen. If the chasen is high quality, then the matcha will have an excellent flavour.”

This whisk is made entirely by hand by Hirata-san and his father.

Together, the two of them can only make 10 a day, while the demand for their master artisan whisks is beyond their capacity even in Japan alone.

Their knowledge is passed down from generation to generation. Hirata-san has been making matcha whisks by hand for 20 years, and his father for over 50 years.

They use the same craft techniques as 500 years ago.

Hirata-san invites you to take pleasure in choosing your matcha tea utensils. Because an excellent whisk will produce a flavoursome matcha.

This whisk is actually a precious and rare work of art.

Follow the instructions in our guide to preparing matcha tea to use this matcha whisk.

Be sure to always keep this delicate piece dry and wipe it with a dry cloth after use.

How to care for your handmade matcha whisk

Hirata-san gave me several tips and answers:

  • The bamboo used to make an artisanal bamboo whisk is naturally very hard, and it is inevitable that at some point it will break.
  • Under the best conditions, your matcha whisk will not break for 2 to 3 years, or even much longer.

Here are several tips to maximize its lifespan.

  • do not expose to direct sunlight
  • Do not expose it to drafts (wind, air conditioning) or temperature changes (near an oven or heat source, radiator, etc.).
  • Use it regularly (at least once a week or a little less) so that there is a little moisture present.

les détails du "shinari" : signifie "être plié" ou "flexibilité". Atteindre le shinari ne peut pas être accompli par une machine, il faut que chaque brin soit travaillé à la main, un par un.

The Kumiko Matcha Journey

After overcoming health challenges during my teenage years, I learned to savor each day while moving forward serenely toward the future.

Back in France, my passion for authentic matcha tea inspired me to create Kumiko Matcha.

Kumiko, which means "eternally beautiful," symbolizes this quest for harmony and presence. To find out where to buy the best organic matcha tea with full traceability, look no further. Every year, I visit our partner farmers in Japan, building direct relationships with those who grow this green treasure with passion and respect.
