Know before you buy
The integrated spout allows you to pour your prepared matcha cleanly into another vessel without dripping. This is particularly useful if you prefer to whisk your tea in the bowl and then transfer it into a serving cup or latte glass.
With a diameter of 14.7 cm, this bowl provides ample surface area for your bamboo whisk to move freely. The wide shape ensures you can incorporate air effectively to create a fine, frothy layer of matcha.
Yes, this bowl is not dishwasher, microwave, oven, or freezer safe. To preserve the artisan finish and the integrity of the ceramic, we recommend hand washing it gently with mild soap and drying it thoroughly after each use.
The shinogi pattern is a traditional Japanese technique where the clay is carved to create fluted ridges. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, these ridges provide a tactile grip, making the bowl easier to hold while you whisk.
Not at all. The walls are designed to curve inward specifically to contain the liquid during vigorous whisking, which helps prevent splashing. The base remains wide enough to accommodate the full range of motion needed for a proper whisk.
