Shin Whisk
Shin Whisk
As in sword-making, the weight of a chasen’s handle to tines is a mark of true craftsmanship. This classic Shin tea whisk is perfectly balanced, with a double layer of bamboo that curve from the handle like the gently opening petals of a flower.
This is the roundest tea whisk we carry, and the most versatile. It’s intended for both thick and thin powdered teas, and is the perfect piece for beginning matcha makers.
*Please note that handmade items are inherently unique. The whisk you receive may vary slightly from the picture.
Proper Care: prepare whisk for use by dampening in warm water to relax the bamboo fronds. To clean, simply whisk in a bowl of warm water, without soap or detergent. Store upright.
