Add some color to your tea ritual with this beautiful Chawan Sakura Unofu bowl. The elegant "waisted" design of this handcrafted bowl makes it feel more natural in your hands and the smooth glaze adds a sleek finish to complete the piece. Wherever you are in the world, this tea bowl will help remind you of Japanese cherry blossom season as you drink your bowl of matcha.

How to use the Chawan Sakura Unofu

To prepare a bowl of matcha, sift the matcha powder into the Chawan Sakura Unofu bowl, add water, and whisk the tea until a light green foam appears on top.

  • Step 1

    Start by setting a sifter on the Chawan Sakura Unofu. Add 2 grams or 1 teaspoon of powder into the sifter and push it through until you create a finely sifted layer of powder at the bottom of the bowl.

  • Step 2

    Get some water heated to a temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit or 70 degrees Celsius.

  • Step 3

    Add just a bit of warm water to the powder and stir until you get a smooth paste without any clumps at the bottom of the Chawan Sakura Unofu bowl.

  • Step 4

    Add 100ml of water between 160-175 degrees Fahrenheit to the paste, gently mixing it in while scraping the sides of the Chawan Sakura Unofu to ensure it is fully combined.

  • Step 5

    Now, whisk your matcha bowl vigorously with quick zigzag motions using your wrist. With enough practice, you'll be able to easily create a light green foam on the matcha, enhancing its smooth consistency and taste.

  • Step 6

    Enjoy your bowl of matcha! You can either drink it directly out of the Chawan Sakura Unofu or pour it into a glass.

Made out of premium raw materials

This Chawan Sakura Unofu is made out of premium clay, quartz and feldspar from Gifu prefecture, where pottery has been made since ancient times. This region has produced some of the most famous styles of pottery like Oribe and Shino. This tea is made using the Unofu style, where the straw of rice grown without pesticides is burned and turned to ash. This ash is then used as the raw material for the glaze. This results in a warm, natural white color.

Benefits of the Chawan Sakura Unofu

Making matcha with this Chawan Sakura Unofu bowl offers several benefits. The steeper sides make whisking the tea easier, reducing the likelihood of spills. The thick clay adds a sense of importance to the tea ceremony and helps keep the matcha warm when preheated.
