HARU MATCHA - KUROCHIKU Black Bamboo Chasen - Handcarved Matcha Greentea Whisk (100 Prongs)
KUROCHIKU is a bamboo breed that is one of the most sought after. The KUROCHIKU bamboo is green colored in spring, with black blotches appearing in early autumn before it fully changes to black in the later season. Each chasen is unique and no two are ever alike. We are extremely proud to bring you a high quality chasen that is made in Japan.
BEFORE FIRST USE: Soak the bamboo tines in warm water to soften bristles to prevent it from easy breakage. Gently whisk back and forth for about one minute. It's now ready to be used! To avoid damaging any of the bamboo prongs, try not to scratch or pressing down too hard while whisking. The prongs should barely touch the bottom of the bowl.
AFTER EACH USE: Use cold water to rinse the bristles. Pat dry with paper towel or shake off excess moisture. Place your whisk on a whisk holder or face up and allow to air-dry.
