[Differences between domestically produced and foreign-made tea whisks]
- For domestic products, we use domestically grown hachiku bamboo, which is harvested in the winter, left to rest for over a year, and then dried and made into products.
Products made overseas may contain preservatives and mold inhibitors because they are not dried.
-There are also differences in manufacturing methods.
For Japanese-made chasen, the process of thinning the tip of the whisk is done by craftsmen one by one using a small knife, but in other countries, the process is done with a file.
Shaving with a file is easier and quicker, but it leaves fine scratches on the surface of the tip, making the tip more likely to break.
