Suikaen

Using the traditional method passed for 25 generations,
Suikaen produces bamboo tea tools purely chemical free and with exquisite craftsmanship.
Suikaen
The Chasen master Tanimurasan of Suikaen is one of the only seventeen existing Chasen Craftsman in Japan. The traditional process of Chasen making protected and passed along for more than 500 years is purely natural and chemical free. This is important as the scent of the Chasen effects the delicate taste of the Matcha.
The products you see here are made from premium quality Japan grown Henon Bamboo of two to three years of age. That's the perfect age for the bamboo to be used for Chasen. The chemical free oil draining, and the subsequent drying and strengthening process which sits the bamboo in the cold January mountains of Takayama for 2 months gives the bamboo a beautiful gloss and glow. The bamboo tea tools of Suikaen are surely worth a try.
