M-Shaped Matcha Whisking at More More Matcha (MMM)

At More More Matcha (MMM), we like to add a little twist to your daily matcha routine — whisking in an “M” shape instead of the usual back-and-forth motion. It’s a simple change that makes every cup feel special.

How to Whisk in M-Shape
1. Add one teaspoon of matcha to your bowl.  
2. Pour about 30–50 ml of hot water (70–80°C) for a lighter, thinner matcha.
3. Whisk in an M shape using your chasen (bamboo whisk).  
   - Imagine looking down at your bowl and tracing an “M” with the whisk.
   - Keep your hand relaxed — there’s no need to rush.
4. Stop once a light, frothy foam appears, then enjoy your matcha slowly.

Why It’s Fun
Whisking in an M shape makes your matcha time more mindful and enjoyable. Many people aren’t sure how to move the whisk — and that’s totally okay!
The M shape gives you a simple, easy-to-follow guide that makes every cup feel intentional.

Adjusting Your Matcha
For a thinner (薄茶) matcha: Use 30-50 ml of water for a lighter, more delicate taste.
For a thicker (濃茶) matcha: Use 20-30 ml of water for a stronger, more intense flavor.

At MMM, we believe that little moments like whisking your matcha can be simple rituals that bring calm and joy to your day. Give the M shape a try and see how it changes your daily cup!
