80 Prong Purple Bamboo Matcha Whisk. Our bamboo whisk is designed and handcrafted from a single piece of purple bamboo, the Chasen is a fine example of Japanese function and form. From a short but comfortable base that serves as the handle, each matcha whisk is split into 80 prongs with individual "circlets" at each tip. These circlets assist with mixing and aerating the matcha, lifting the flavour to its fullest potential. Essential to creating the creamiest, frothiest, and most delicious matcha tea, a quality matcha whisk is a must-have for maximising your Purematcha experience.
