Sashitoshi Hishaku (Through-Handle Bamboo Tea Ladle) Souhen Style 宗偏流 When used for matcha lattesThe Sashitoshi Hishaku is a traditional style of bamboo ladle used in formal Japanese tea ceremony settings. Its defining feature is the unique construction in which the handle passes through the ladle cup, creating a refined and classical silhouette rooted in earlier tea traditions. This form is often associated with more formal tea arrangements, such as those using a ladle stand (shakutate), where both function and presentation are equally valued.
