Know before you buy
The muddler features a smooth, sanded finish, but it is recommended to occasionally treat the wood with a food-safe mineral oil to maintain its luster and prevent it from drying out over time.
No, this muddler is not dishwasher safe. High heat and prolonged exposure to water can cause the acacia wood to warp or crack, so it should be hand-washed and dried immediately after use.
The flat base is designed for efficient, uniform mashing of ingredients like mint, citrus, and sugar. It provides a larger surface area for consistent breakdown without shredding delicate herbs, which can sometimes happen with teeth or textured heads.
The 12-inch length is ideal for reaching the bottom of standard mixing glasses and tall highball glasses. It provides plenty of leverage for your hand while keeping your knuckles clear of the rim.
Because acacia is a natural, porous wood, it can absorb strong oils and aromas over time. To minimize this, rinse the muddler thoroughly with warm water immediately after use and ensure it is completely dry before storing.
