Why Bamboo Matcha Whisks Matter (and Why Buy Wholesale)

If you’ve ever watched matcha being whisked into a velvety green foam, chances are it was done with a bamboo whisk — the chasen. A centuries-old tool carved from a single piece of bamboo, the chasen isn’t just functional. It’s meaningful.

Rooted in Japanese tea ceremony, the chasen is a symbol of calm, care, and craftsmanship. And today, as matcha continues its global rise — from wellness cafés to curated subscription boxes — this humble tool is seeing a quiet revival.

So why go wholesale?

Because demand is growing. People are embracing matcha not just as a drink, but as a ritual. That means they’re looking for authentic, handmade tools — the kind that tells a story.

For resellers, bamboo matcha whisks offer:

• ✅ A niche but growing global market

• ✅ Strong storytelling and artisanal value

• ✅ Healthy profit margins and repeat purchase potential

Whether you’re building a tea brand, sourcing gift box add-ons, or launching your own café line — this is a small product with big potential.

Our Bamboo Whisks

Not all bamboo whisks are the same — and that’s part of the beauty.

We offer several styles, each handcrafted by skilled artisans using traditional methods. The main difference? Strand count, which affects the texture, foaminess, and overall whisking experience.

Core Styles We Offer:

🌿 Tsuneho 常穂 – 58 Strands

The everyday classic. Slightly stiffer with fewer tines — perfect for beginners or those who prefer a rustic feel.

🌿 Kazaho 数穂 – 63 Strands

Balanced and smooth. Great foam production and aesthetic appeal. Ideal for small tea businesses or curated gifting.

🌿 Hachiju-hon 八十本 – 72 Strands

A refined option for richer foam. Our best-seller for boutique tea brands and modern tea houses.

🌿 Hyaku-hon 百本 – 72 Strands

Same count as 八十本 but with denser arrangement for creamier texture. Popular with matcha bars and cafés.

🌿 Hyaku-niju 百二十本 – 80 Strands

Our most premium model. Extra dense, super flexible, and incredibly smooth — the choice for perfectionists, professionals, and high-end boxes.

Bamboo Type: White vs. Purple

🟡 White Bamboo (白竹)

Traditional and smooth, with a soft golden tone that develops with use. Clean and minimal — great for classic matcha aesthetics.

🟤 Purple Bamboo (紫竹)

Rich reddish-brown, with natural patterning and a more earthy, rustic feel.
