A high-quality, stainless steel strainer for sifting matcha.

£34 per item

Sifting matcha through a strainer is a key step for improving the quality of your drink in order to fully enjoy it. Simply whisking the powder in water might sometimes leave some lumps in your matcha. This is the result of static electricity keeping tea powder particles together making them difficult to separate and often leaving them floating on the top of your drink or sticking to the side of your tea bowl. In order to prepare authentic matcha with a smooth texture, and a properly aerated, frothy surface, it is important to sift the powder through a strainer first to separate any lumps, allowing you to properly mix your drink during whisking. This stainless steel tea strainer is ideal in both size and quality and will be the only strainer you will ever need to prepare delicious matcha.

Dishwasher safe.

Ippodo

一保堂

Ippodo has been run by the Watanabe family since its establishment in 1717, when Watanabe Rihei opened his shop in Omiya in Teramachi Nijo in Kyoto to sell tea and ceramics. The shop quickly gained a reputation for providing high quality tea and patrons included members of the Imperial Court and household. In 1846 the shop was renamed by Prince Yamashina to Ippodo (lit. 'preserve one'), reflecting his wishes that the shop would forever preserve its dedication to producing only the highest quality of tea.
