Know before you buy
Because this muddler is not dishwasher safe, you should hand wash it with mild soap and warm water immediately after use. Avoid soaking it in water, and occasionally apply a food-grade mineral oil to keep the wood from drying out or cracking.
This model features a smooth muddler head. It is designed to effectively crush herbs and fruit against the bottom of your glass without shredding them, which helps prevent bitter flavors from being released.
As a natural wood product, it is not odor-resistant and may absorb strong scents over time if not cleaned thoroughly. We recommend rinsing it well after each use to minimize flavor transfer between cocktails.
The contoured, ergonomic handle is designed to provide a secure, non-slip grip. This allows you to apply the necessary pressure for vigorous muddling without the tool slipping from your hand.
At 8.75 inches long, this muddler is sized to reach the bottom of most standard mixing glasses and cocktail shakers. Just be mindful when using it in delicate glassware to avoid applying too much force and risking a crack.
