Whenever I am in the need for some really excellent green tea, I buy it at Hibiki-an! Yes, it is costly, but not expensive. I have bought many teas from Hibiki-an over the years, and never been disappointed in either the price-quality level nor in their impeccable s...(more)

This is a good sifter. And it is packaged in a way that avoids spreading the matcha around. Matcha tea stays put in the sifter as it is recessed about 2cm. The little, well-shaped "spoon" is the ideal partner for the sifter. Matcha needs a bit of help to go...(more)

Great whisk! Mine has been used for over a year, and it is still like new. This whisk makes a fine and thick foam used with for ex Hibiki-an´s House Matcha tea. I think I prefer the 120 bristle one to the 80 bristle one. I am getting the hang of whisking :-...(more)
