[Set Contents]
1. Bamboo Whisk (Chasen)
This is a traditional bamboo whisk. A sticker reading "100-prong" (Hyakubon-date) is visible on the handle. This type has a high number of tines, making it easy even for beginners to whisk up a fine, creamy foam.
2. Whisk Holder (Chasen Kusenaoshi)
The pale green ceramic stand in the center. Placing the whisk on this stand after use helps prevent it from losing its shape (warping) and ensures the whisk lasts longer.
3. Spouted Matcha Bowl (Katakuchi)
A major feature of this bowl is the spout. It makes it easy to pour prepared matcha into other cups, making it extremely convenient for preparing matcha lattes or matcha sauces.
4. Tea Sifter (Chakoshi)
A stainless steel strainer. It is used to sift the matcha powder to remove clumps, ensuring a smooth texture and mouthfeel.
5. Long Spoon
The slender metal tool on the right side. It is used to scoop the matcha powder (a modern design serving as an alternative to the traditional bamboo scoop, or Chashaku).
6. Tea Cloth / Towel
The cloth inside the bag on the far right. It can be used to wipe down tools or placed underneath the bowl as a placemat.
