Long Handle Bamboo Whisk (Encho Chasen)

The bamboo whisk, or chasen (茶筅), is a centuries-old tool used in Japanese tea ceremonies to create smooth, velvety and frothy matcha. Hand-carved from a single piece of bamboo, its fine prongs create a smooth, creamy texture—blending tradition and taste in every cup.

A modern twist on tradition, the long handle chasen brings the same fine prongs of a classic bamboo whisk but with an elongated grip for extra comfort and control. Perfectly designed for taller vessels like mugs, tumblers, and latte glasses, it makes whisking smooth, easy, and controlled where a classic whisk might feel short. The extended handle gives you better leverage, making it especially loved by matcha latte enthusiasts who prefer larger servings and a steady froth.

- Soak in warm water for 1-2 minutes before use to soften the prongs.
- Rinse with water immediately after use to remove residue (no soap).
- Dry upright or on a whisk holder.
- Store in a dry, well-ventilated place.
- Natural fraying over time is expected.
