D0 you know The COOL JAPAN AWARD?
The COOL JAPAN AWARD is an award that discovers and certifies Japan’s attractive products

“Cool Japan” Award winners can use the “COOL JAPAN Certification Mark”
and utilize it for overseas expansion and promotions.
The COOL JAPAN AWARD 2025 received a total of 418 entries in 2025,
submitted through self-nomination, third-party nomination,
and selection by the Secretariat’s curator network.
Following a preliminary screening by the Secretariat,
a secondary screening by 100 international judges,
and a final screening by special judges, 46 entries were certified
as award recipients. Among these, the Takayama Tea Whisk was selected.
In our tea ceremony, we use the prestigious Takayama chasen

The Takayama chasen is very intricately crafted delicate and you can whisk matcha beautifully.
