Chashaku, or matcha tea scoop, is meticulously handcrafted by 24th generation Master Craftsman, Kubo Sabun, using high quality bamboo harvested in Nara, Japan.  A bamboo scoop is traditionally used to measure matcha for serving and is an essential tool for Japanese tea ceremonies. The smoked bamboo is specifically sourced from wood that has been exposed over a hearth or fireplace in 50 to 150 year old traditional Japanese homes making this Chashaku super special. It is lightweight, yet durable enough to last a very long time with proper care. Functional work of art at its best.
