Whisk it good! This traditional bamboo whisk, known as a "chasen," is used in Japanese tea ceremonies to prepare perfectly smooth matcha. Just pour warm water over your finely ground green tea and whisk until you reach an even consistency. Sip it quick to experience the delicious and healthy taste of this centuries-old ritual. Or go the modern route by mixing your favourite matcha with frothy steamed milk for a tasty latte.
