Matchaeologist is a matcha brand sourcing exclusively from Uji, Kyoto, Japan, offering a curated range of ceremonial and culinary grades. Its matcha is grown using the traditional Honzu method, a 30-day shading process with rice-straw mats before harvest.
The collection includes cultivars Misaki, Matsu, and Meiko for drinking, and Midori and Mirai for culinary use, all processed from first-flush tencha ground slowly on granite stone mills.
The Matchaeologist Full-Hand Bamboo Chasen is a full-length bamboo matcha whisk made for both usucha and koicha preparation. It is handcrafted from a single piece of winter-hardened bamboo, with a handle length optimized for a comfortable grip. Its prong count was selected to accommodate both preparation methods, making the chasen suitable for either style.
How does the Full-Hand Chasen support two preparation methods?
This chasen is intended for preparing both usucha and koicha. Its full-length form provides a handheld design, while the chosen number of prongs supports the requirements of both methods. The source does not provide a numerical prong count, so the defining preparation detail is its stated suitability for these two styles.
