The beechwood mallet receives high marks for its sturdy construction and comfortable feel, making ice crushing an effortless task.

Know before you buy
The 100% natural cotton canvas is designed to absorb excess water from the ice as you crush it. This results in drier, higher-quality crushed ice that won't dilute your cocktails as quickly as ice crushed in a plastic or metal container.
To keep the wood in top condition, wipe the mallet with a damp cloth and dry it immediately after use. It is recommended to apply a food-safe Butcher Block Oil before your first use and periodically thereafter to prevent the wood from drying out or cracking.
No, the Lewis bag should be hand washed and air dried. Machine washing may damage the heavy-duty canvas or compromise the integrity of the flap closure.
Place your ice cubes inside the canvas bag, fold the flap over, and use the mallet to strike the bag firmly. The curved head of the mallet is designed to provide the necessary heft to break down ice into consistent, small pieces with minimal effort.
Yes, this is a complete 2-piece set that includes the canvas Lewis bag and the oversized Beechwood mallet. You only need to provide the ice.
