We love the French title of this gift set: matcha coffret d’initiation, or “matcha initiation box.” Here, you’re gifting not just a tea set but also an introduction to the universe of matcha. Each box contains a slim bamboo scoop, sized just-right for prepping a single serving; a bamboo chasen, or a tea whisk, to help create a perfectly smooth emulsion; plus a ceramic chawan, or tea bowl, for both mixing and enjoying the final masterpiece.

A great new afternoon ritual

This is one of the positive daily rituals I started due to being sheltered in place—replacing one of two cups of coffee per day with a bowl of self-whisked matcha instead. I was excited to get this set, so I could finally use the matcha I brought back from Japan last fall. Matcha truly does give you a calm energy and even the act of whisking the matcha to create that desired frothiness is calming in itself. Oh, and everyone asks about the beautiful bowl that comes with it :-). I also advise that you also purchase a chasen whisk stand for the longevity of your new whisk. Enjoy!
