- Carefully handcrafted by Suikaen - one of the only 17 existing Chasen Craftsman in Japan.
- Produced in the traditional village of Takayama, Japan which is the origin of the Chasen 530 years ago.
- All natural, completely chemical free. No chemical smell to spoil the delicate taste of Matcha.*
- Premium quality Japan grown Henon Bamboo 2-3 years of age, which are oil drained and subsequently sun-dried for 2 months time in the cold January to Feburary mountains of Ikoma Takayama. Under this climate, the bamboo strengthens and formulates a beautiful gloss. It is then stored for 2 years before it is used for Chasen crafting.
- Suikaen inherits the precious traditional skills from 500 years ago.A small blade is used to cut and trim the bamboo into a beautiful Chasen. The process of narrowing the prongs is called "Aji-kezuri", and is said to be the most difficult part as it even changes the taste of the Matcha.
