A complete matcha set, or just the missing piece

Whether you want a matcha set that gives you the whole ritual in one box — perfect for beginners and for gifting — or a single accessory like a chashaku scoop or whisk holder to complete your kit, you’ll find it here. Every piece is handcrafted in Japan, several by the Suikaen family in Takayama.

Matcha Sets & Accessories

Two ways to start

Which matcha set is right for you?

Both give you a smooth bowl of matcha out of the box. The difference is whether you whisk in a traditional bowl or prefer a spouted bowl built for clean pouring.

Traditional whisking

Matcha Whisk Set

  • Bamboo whisk (chasen)
  • Bamboo scoop (chashaku)
  • Ceramic whisk holder (kusenaoshi)

The complete set of matcha tools for preparing matcha in your own bowl. Choose this if you already have a chawan — or pair it with one from our bowls collection.

Whisk & pour

Glass Bowl & Whisk Set

  • Handmade Japanese glass bowl with pouring spout
  • Bamboo whisk (chasen)

A complete matcha bowl and whisk set in one. The spouted glass bowl lets you whisk and pour cleanly into a cup or latte — and you can watch the matcha come together.

The finishing pieces

The accessories, explained

Two small tools make a real difference to how you measure your matcha and how long your whisk lasts. Both of ours are handcrafted in Japan by the Suikaen family in Takayama.

The bamboo scoop (chashaku)

A chashaku is a slender bamboo matcha scoop, carved from a single piece of bamboo. One curved scoop holds close to the right amount of matcha for a bowl, so it doubles as a simple measure — roughly two scoops per serving.

Ours is made in Takayama, Nara, by the same Suikaen family who carve our chasen — so a matcha scoop and whisk can come from a single workshop. More than a tool, it’s the traditional way to portion matcha gracefully.

The whisk holder & stand (kusenaoshi)

A matcha whisk holder — or whisk stand — is the single best way to extend a chasen’s life. Resting the whisk on the ceramic dome while it dries holds the tines in their proper outward curve, preventing the warping and cracking that ends most whisks early.

Our ceramic matcha whisk stand is made slightly taller than standard designs for better support, and like our scoops and whisks, it’s crafted in Takayama. Keep your whisk on it between uses — not sealed in its plastic case, which traps moisture.

For someone who’d love it

Matcha sets make a beautiful gift

A complete matcha gift set is one of the easiest meaningful presents to give — it arrives as a whole experience, not just an object, and everything inside is handcrafted in Japan.

Complete

Whisk, scoop, and holder together — everything the recipient needs to make their first bowl, with nothing else to buy.

Authentic

Genuine Takayama craft from the Suikaen family, not mass-produced tools — a gift with a real story behind it.

Lasting

A daily ritual rather than a novelty — the kind of present that gets used every morning long after it’s given.

Common questions

Matcha sets & accessories, explained

What’s in a matcha set?

Our matcha whisk set includes the three essential tools for preparing matcha: a bamboo whisk (chasen), a bamboo scoop (chashaku), and a ceramic whisk holder (kusenaoshi). Our glass set pairs a spouted glass bowl with a whisk. Both give you everything you need to whisk a smooth bowl — just add matcha and a bowl if your set doesn’t include one.

What’s the difference between a matcha set and a matcha kit?

People use the terms interchangeably, but generally a “set” refers to the tools — whisk, scoop, holder, bowl — while a “kit” sometimes also includes the matcha powder. Our sets are tool sets: the handcrafted Japanese equipment. You can add the tea separately from our Japanese matcha collection to build your own complete starter kit, choosing exactly the grade you want rather than a generic included powder.

What is a chashaku used for?

A chashaku is a bamboo matcha scoop. Beyond simply transferring matcha to your bowl, it acts as a traditional measure — roughly two scoops makes one serving (about 2 grams). It’s the graceful, traditional alternative to a metal teaspoon.

Do I need a matcha whisk holder?

It’s the best small investment you can make in your whisk. A kusenaoshi holder (also called a whisk stand) supports the tines in their proper outward curve while drying, preventing the warping and cracking that ends most whisks early — so your chasen lasts noticeably longer.

Are matcha sets a good gift?

They’re one of the easiest meaningful gifts to give. A complete set arrives as a whole experience rather than a single object, everything inside is handcrafted in Japan, and it becomes a daily ritual rather than a novelty — used long after it’s given. Our sets suit both newcomers and established matcha drinkers.
