Know before you buy
The Warren Julep Strainer is designed with a bowl size that accommodates both standard and large mixing glasses, ensuring a secure fit for most professional and home barware.
The finish is applied to high-quality stainless steel for durability. While it is built for professional use, we recommend hand washing to maintain the integrity and luster of the gunmetal coating over time.
The uniform perforation is engineered to provide consistent flow while effectively catching ice shards and fruit pulp, resulting in a clean, smooth pour for your cocktails.
While the stainless steel construction is durable, we recommend hand washing this item to prevent potential scratching or dulling of the gunmetal finish that can occur in a dishwasher.
A julep strainer is ideal for stirred cocktails served in a mixing glass. Its compact, bowl-shaped design allows for a more controlled pour and is generally easier to clean than the spring-loaded Hawthorne style.
