Kai – ceremonial matcha set, 50 g

This is the moment when you no longer need to buy anything extra. The ceramics, all the bamboo utensils and the tea — a complete set, ready for your first cup just fifteen minutes after unpacking.

The Kai glaze — a blue spreading across the white like water in a shallow bay — is applied by hand, so no two cups are exactly alike. The cup has a spout, which means the same set can be used for both classic matcha and a latte, without spilling all over the kitchen.

If you’re looking for a gift for someone who’s ‘into matcha’ but aren’t sure what they already have, this is a safe choice, as it contains the whole set, not just a few pieces.

The set includes

• ZOI ceremonial matcha, 50 g — approx. 25 cups
• Chawan with a spout — hand-glazed Kai ceramics
• Chasen — bamboo whisk
• Chashaku — bamboo spoon
• Chasen stand

First bowl: two scoops of matcha, 70 ml of water at 70–80 °C, whisk for twenty seconds. Do not use boiling water.
