A chashaku is a traditional Japanese bamboo spoon used for measuring matcha. Crafted from a single piece of natural bamboo, it is lightweight, durable, and perfectly shaped to scoop fine matcha powder without clumping. Its sleek shape and hand-finished finish give it a simple, minimalist aesthetic that complements any tea ceremony set.
This tool was developed in Japan over hundreds of years and remains a fundamental element of the traditional matcha brewing ritual. One chashaku scoops approximately 0.5 to 1 gram of powder, allowing you to easily control the intensity of the flavor and prepare the drink according to your preferences.
The chashaku is perfect for everyday use and as an elegant addition to a matcha set. Its natural look and classic form make it not only practical but also decorative – it looks beautiful next to the bowl and chasen.
For drinks such as matcha lattes, smoothies, ice cream, baked goods, pancakes, chia puddings, protein shakes and desserts.
The traditional method of preparing matcha originates from the Japanese tea ceremony and emphasizes peace and mindfulness. Pour about 1–2 teaspoons of matcha into a bowl ( chawan ) and sift the powder until smooth and lump-free. Boil water and then cool it to approximately 80°C (176°F) – too hot water will strip the matcha of its delicate aroma and nutritional value. Pour in about 60–80 ml of water and, using a bamboo whisk ( chasen ), whisk the matcha vigorously, making M-shaped or W-shaped movements, until a light foam forms. Drink the prepared matcha immediately, savoring its flavor, aroma, and the tranquility that each cup brings.
Store it tightly closed in a cool, dry place, away from light and moisture. It's best to refrigerate it after opening to prevent loss of color and flavor.
Matcha is a powdered form of green tea where you drink the whole, ground leaves, not just the infusion. This allows your body to absorb significantly more antioxidants, caffeine, and chlorophyll, resulting in improved well-being, natural energy, and a sense of concentration. This is the essence of green tea in its most intense form.
Matcha provides natural energy, but in a much gentler and more balanced way than coffee. Its caffeine releases gradually, providing a longer-lasting boost without a sudden energy crash. Additionally, matcha contains L-theanine, an amino acid that supports concentration and calmness—so after drinking it, you feel clear-headed, without irritability or tension. It's a harmonious alternative to your morning coffee.
