The Matcha Starter Pack: everything you need to get started
Partager
We often start drinking matcha with whatever we have. A glass. A fork. Water that's too hot. And we tell ourselves it's disappointing.
It's not the matcha that's disappointing. It's the equipment.
Why good equipment changes everything
Matcha is a very fine powder. For it to dissolve properly and form a foam, you need a whisk designed for that. An ordinary whisk won't do.
Similarly, the powder forms small clumps in its bag. A stainless steel sieve allows you to sift it before preparation. The result: a smooth texture, a fine foam, a milder taste.
These two steps — sifting and whisking — make the difference between a decent matcha and an exceptional matcha.
What's in the SUPRAMATCHA Starter Pack
- Origin Matcha Saemidori 30g — Uji single-origin cultivar, natural sweetness, silky umami. Approximately 30 servings.
- Bamboo whisk (chasen) — 80 prongs, fluid movements, fine and persistent foam.
- Chashaku spoon — black bamboo, precise dosage, 1 spoon = approx. 1g.
- Mini matcha sieve — stainless steel, essential for eliminating clumps before whisking.
First steps tip: Start with 1g of matcha (one spoon) for 70ml of water at 75°C. You can increase the dose once you've mastered the whisking technique. Going too fast with the dosage is the first mistake beginners make.
Starter Pack or buying individually?
Buying each accessory separately is more expensive. The Starter Pack is designed to start directly with what you need — without buying anything extra, without improvising.
It's also the ideal gift set. Matcha, accessories, and a complete experience from the first opening.
FAQ
Q: Can I use an electric whisk instead of a chasen?
A: Yes. The SUPRAMATCHA rechargeable frother is a practical alternative for daily use. The texture is slightly different, but the result is very satisfying.
Q: Is the Starter Pack suitable as a gift?
A: Yes. It is designed to be given as a gift: complete contents, neat presentation, immediate experience upon opening.
Q: How many servings are in the 30g bag?
A: Approximately 30 servings with 1g per bowl. If you prefer a more intense matcha, count 1.5 to 2g per preparation, or 15 to 20 servings.
