Just like our Limited Edition Vessel, it is made of pure material, 100% porcelain, and pays a vibrant homage to Japanese minimalism & avant-garde.
We designed this bowl through many iterations in order to reach the perfect shape needed to prepare a great Matcha Green Tea – we highly recommend to use a Chasen (Matcha Whisk) to whisk MMU blends to smooth perfection!

A sharp blend of Okumidori, Zairai, Samidori and Yabukita.
Sharpness is what characterizes MMU01 immediately, an intense blend of green tea varieties: we complemented native Uji “Zairai” leaves and the balanced Yabukita variety, with the confidence of Okumidori and the class of Samidori, one of Uji’s native and most exclusive variety used for “shaded” tea.
Matcha is an infinitely precious material, and as such deserves to be stored in a beautiful way. We pay homage to the purity of material with a first Limited Edition Ceramic, an everyday celebration of matcha as a modern life ritual!
Contents:
The MMU03 blend was crafted as a total art piece: we crafted a combination of two of the most exclusive “shaded” tea species, both historically originating entirely from the Uji terroir. Full and velvety is what best describes the Gokou variety, however it is further enhanced by Samidori’s depth to realize a full bodied, complex, refined blend.

When conceiving MMU02 we chose to go in the direction of extreme smoothness and balance: Okumidori’s roundness and moderation had to perfectly complement the depth and flamboyance of “shaded” tea favorite, Uji’s very own Samidori variety. The result is a fruity, smooth and all round balanced blend.

The Spoon (also called “Chashaku”): it may not seem necessary to own a traditional Matcha spoon. Absolutely. But you’ll find it strangely gratifying once you start using one. Using a Chashaku spoon sets you in the mood for preparing Matcha, pays tribute to its sophisticated ritual, and is simply the best way to measure Matcha.
One or two spoons, you’ll soon know what suits your taster better! Our Chashaku spoon is handmade out of bamboo.

Just let your whisk dry on its holder after you clean it, and its shape will be perfectly set for future use, for months or years to come. Very recommended. And it looks damn cool.
Our whisk holder is made of black ceramic, and don’t let anyone make dirty jokes about its shape. (remind them about Paul McCarthy’s “Tree“)

We highly recommend using one.
Without a whisk you will miss most of the sophistication of high quality Matcha green tea. It is used to mix the Matcha powder with hot water without lumps, and produces a creamy, delicious froth.
Our whisk is handmade out of bamboo, and is very recommended if you don’t own one already!
