Kiji Stoneware & Ceramics Shizukana Matcha Gift Set New

Recreate the Japanese tea ceremony with the Shizukana matcha gift set. It has everything you need to make warming matcha tea at home.

Handmade in Japan, the white bowl has a speckled brown and blue rim. This simple design gives it an elegant, minimalist look. Shizukana means ‘quiet’ or ‘peaceful’ in Japanese.

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 Shizukana matcha bowl 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.
