Split by hand from Korean bamboo, fanned into dozens of fine prongs — the whisking begins before you've even touched the bowl.
Cheongbaekwon (청백원) continues Korea's chasen (차선) craft, producing bamboo matcha whisks guided by the tradition of master Heo Dokyung. Each whisk is hand-split from either Hwangjuk or Ojuk bamboo — two varieties with different grain densities and flex characteristics — and finished into 80, 100, or 120-prong configurations. The choice of prong count reflects your whisking preference: fewer prongs for a slower, more textured bowl; more for a fine, even foam. This is Korean artisan bamboo craft with genuine practical depth, made by people who understand the difference.
Pair it with a ceramic whisk holder and matcha bowl for a complete, cohesive Korean tea station. Use it daily for a precise matcha ritual, then dry it upright in a Cheongbaekwon holder to preserve its form over time. As a gift for a matcha enthusiast, choose the prong count and bamboo variety that suits their style — the difference is worth understanding.
