Taiyo Matcha Bowl & Whisk Set

Description

Make calming green tea with the Taiyo matcha gift set. Made in Japan, it has everything you need to recreate the tea ceremony.

Taiyo means ‘sun’ in Japanese. The bowl is glazed in shades of earthy brown and sunset orange. Sip your tea slowly to savour its bright, grassy flavour.

The set includes:

  • Glazed porcelain matcha tea bowl
  • Bamboo matcha whisk
  • Whisk holder
  • Chashaku bamboo matcha tea spoon

Matcha is a finely ground green tea powder. It has been enjoyed as part of the Japanese tea ceremony for hundreds of years. Rich in antioxidants, it is said to boost brain health and relieve stress.

For one serving of tea, use the chashaku to measure two scoops of matcha powder into the bowl. Add a splash of hot water and use the whisk to make a paste. Top up with approximately 70ml of hot, not boiling, water. Use the matcha whisk in a vigorous ‘W’ motion until the matcha becomes very frothy. Enjoy immediately.

The Taiyo matcha set is a great gift for matcha lovers. For a gift that’s ready to enjoy straight away, pair it with some matcha green tea powder.

Please note that the whisk must be soaked to soften the tines before you put it over the stand. It will then shape to the stand.
