Authentic Japanese Matcha Sets

Cuzen's Exclusive Matcha Set is Designed for the Modern Kitchen

— July 5, 2022 — Art & Design
Cuzen—a brand known for producing innovative at-home matcha systems—boasts a luxurious and authentic Japanese Matcha Set. The limited-edition product, which is sold out, costs $200 USD and this price reflects the craftsmanship that is inseparable from the tradition of matcha.

Cuzen claims that this authentic Japanese matcha set "celebrates [...] tea ceremony origins." The kit brings together "some of the finest quality matcha and ceremonial object," including the beautiful matcha bowl by Nara ceramicist Takuya Kanamoto and Okumidori (one of the highest quality tencha).

The Japanese Matcha Set is optimized for the modern kitchen and designed to be used alongside Cuzen's grind-only model, featured in the company's Matcha machine. Traditionally, tea leaves were ground into matcha powder just before serving.
