This matcha is a set specifically designed for ’野点’ Nodate or outdoor tea gatherings in Japan. It is the perfect size for use both when travelling and at home. 

Nodate matcha is often enjoyed in the beautiful natural surroundings of Japan, especially during spring and autumn when the picturesque views of cherry blossoms and autumn leaves enhance the experience. Sitting together for tea creates a serene and harmonious moment, allowing the mind to find peace and temporarily escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

What is Chasen?
Chasen is a tea whisk, one of the tea utensils used in the tea ceremony to make matcha (powdered green tea). Chasen has many prongs which enable you to whisk a bowl of smooth and frothy matcha into a tea bowl. Most of the chasen is made of bamboo, but the type and colour of bamboo used differs depending on the school.

Tips for using Chasen
・When using the tea whisk, soak it in hot water to moisten it thoroughly. After use, rinse with water and dry well. The box is not for storage.
・The tip of the tea whisk is easily broken and tea powder may get caught in between the prongs.
・If the tip of the tea whisk is curled, run it through the tea whisk with hot water to make it more flexible and easier to use.
・The tea whisk is a consumable item. If the whisk cracks, grows mold or the tip becomes worn out, it's time to buy a new one.
