Toki Chawan (Bowl)
Criada na região de Mino, no Japão, esta chawan reflete séculos de tradição cerâmica assente na expressão tranquila e na imperfeição natural. Com o seu vidrado suave e tons terrosos, a tigela tem uma presença serena que eleva o ritual do matcha a um momento de quietude. A forma arredondada assenta confortavelmente nas mãos, e as variações sutis em textura e tom garantem que cada peça é única. Funcional e contemplativa, esta chawan convida a uma forma mais lenta e intencional de preparar e desfrutar o chá.

FAQ
How long does delivery take?

Where does your matcha come from?
All matcha is sourced from Japan, from Yame (Fukuoka) and Wazuka (Kyoto), two of the country's most respected tea-growing regions.
What's the difference between the matcha options?
The Ceremonial Matcha is a classic A-grade blend from Yame, smooth, balanced, and ideal for daily preparation. The Samidori and Okumidori are single-cultivar matchas for those who want to explore the distinct character of each tea plant.
Is the matcha ceremonial or culinary grade?
All matcha is ceremonial grade, shade-grown and first harvest. It's meant to be enjoyed on its own with water, not in lattes or baking.
How should matcha be stored?
Keep it in an airtight container, away from light, heat, and moisture. Once opened, consume within 4–6 weeks for best flavour. Refrigeration is optional but recommended in summer.
Is special equipment needed to prepare matcha?
A chasen (bamboo whisk) and a bowl are enough to get started. Sifting the powder first gives a smoother result. The Sanjo Chazutsu makes this easy.
What is the recommended ratio?
Start with 2g of matcha (about 2 chashaku scoops) and 70ml of water at 70°C. Whisk in a W motion until frothy.
