The Matcha Shaker and Bamboo Chashaku Set offers a whisk-free way to prepare frothy matcha. Designed and manufactured in Japan, the reusable shaker holds up to 330 ml of liquid and has a removable steel sieve. The set also includes a bamboo tea scoop, known as a chashaku, for measuring matcha and placing it into the sieve.
How does the shaker make frothy matcha without a whisk?
The matcha shaker performs the same function as a bamboo whisk in a portable container. Matcha passes through the steel sieve before shaking, while the holes beneath the lid help produce delicate, soft bubbles. This design creates a smooth, foamy texture for matcha or houjicha.
The cylinder is made from lightweight Tritan. Its construction is free from BPA, bisphenol S, other bisphenol compounds, and estrogenic and androgenic activity.
What comes with the matcha shaker?

How can the bamboo chashaku be used and cared for?
The bamboo scoop provides a simple way to measure matcha for the shaker. It can also be used to add tea to smoothies or baking recipes. Bamboo is porous, so the scoop should be kept dry. Clean it by wiping it with a dry cloth or paper towel rather than washing it.
Where can this lightweight matcha shaker be used?
The reusable shaker is designed for daily matcha preparation without carrying a bamboo whisk. Its lightweight form can be placed in a bag for use at the office, gym, university, or another location where frothy matcha is wanted. The same shaker design can also be used with houjicha.
