A versatile essential for the daily matcha ritual, the Shin Chasen is designed for both flexibility and durability. Featuring approximately 64 tines, it sits at the perfect midpoint between a fine usucha (thin tea) whisk and a sturdy koicha (thick tea) whisk.

This specific balance allows you to achieve a delicate, creamy froth for lattes or a dense, smooth consistency for traditional preparations. Lightweight and responsive, it is an ideal tool for those developing their whisking technique.

Specifications:

Style: Shin Chasen (Versatile)

Prongs: ~64 tines

Material: Sustainable Bamboo

Care Instructions:

To preserve the integrity and shape of the bamboo tines:

Prep: Always soak the tines in hot water for a minute before use to soften them; this prevents snapping.

Clean: Rinse with lukewarm water immediately after use. Do not use soap or dishwashers.

Dry: Pat dry and store upright (or on a ceramic whisk holder) to maintain the "bloom." Avoid leaving the base in standing water.
