Know before you buy
18/8 stainless steel is a high-grade alloy that offers superior resistance to rust and corrosion. It is the industry standard for professional barware because it does not impart a metallic taste to your drinks and can withstand frequent use and cleaning.
Yes, the 16 oz. glass is designed specifically for the rigors of mixology. However, as with all glass-on-tin shakers, it is best to handle it with care when creating a seal and separating the two pieces.
The Hawthorn strainer is designed with a spring-loaded coil that allows it to fit snugly against the rim of the 30 oz. shaker tin. This ensures a tight seal, preventing ice and fruit pulp from escaping into your glass while pouring.
While the stainless steel components are dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing the pieces to maintain the finish and longevity of the material. The glass component should be handled carefully to avoid breakage during the wash cycle.
Absolutely. This 4-piece collection provides the essential tools needed to master foundational techniques like shaking and stirring. It is a practical, professional-grade kit that covers the basics without unnecessary clutter.
