The Japanese tea ceremony is a traditional ritual where dried Matcha green tea is meticulously prepared and served to a small group of guests in a serene and leisurely setting. A key element of the ceremony is the use of a bamboo whisk to whip the Matcha into a frothy consistency. Significantly, old and damaged whisks are not discarded; instead, they are collected and brought to local temples each year around May for a ritualistic burning in a ceremony called chasen kuyó. While this custom is not an official part of the tea ceremony, the profound connection between the tea ceremony and traditional religious practices lends a solemn and respectful air to this act of “destruction.”
