Shin Kazuho Takayama Chasen Whisk

Elevate your matcha ritual with this classic black bamboo (kurotake) Shin Kazuho style chasen whisk handcrafted by Tango Tanimura, one of Japan’s most revered chasen artisans. Shin Kazuho chasen have thin but durable carved tines designed specifically for tea ceremony to create many bowls of tea with ease. This chasen has a supple spring to it when whisking matcha and is less fragile than other high-end chasen. Striking an optimal balance of flexibility and durability, it is recommended for tea ceremony practitioners and intermediate matcha enthusiasts alike. This chasen's black thread makes it suitable for formal Omotesenke style tea ceremonies. Crafted in Takayama, Nara—Japan’s historic chasen-making region—this whisk embodies centuries of tradition and craftsmanship. Please enjoy the art of matcha preparation with this authentic Tanimura chasen.
