The traditional spoon made of bamboo, or "Chashaku" in Japanese, is perfect for handling matcha as it makes it easy to measure the required amount.Of course, matcha can be handled using a regular spoon, but the bamboo spoon is a true joy to use, in addition to being aesthetically pleasing.In Japan, it is customary to use about two bamboo spoons of matcha to prepare the drink.The bamboo is shaped manually under steam.Warning:Do not wash in the dishwasher to maintain its shape and appearance.We wish you a wonderful tasting experience!
