Know before you buy

Olive wood is a dense, non-porous hardwood, which makes it naturally resistant to absorbing strong odors or stains. However, it is best to rinse it thoroughly after muddling highly pigmented ingredients like blackberries or beets to maintain its appearance.
The muddler is hand-carved and sanded to a smooth, ergonomic finish. This ensures it is comfortable to hold and won't splinter or damage your glassware during use.
No. Because each muddler is crafted from natural olive wood, you can expect variations in the grain pattern and color. These unique characteristics are part of the wood's natural beauty and ensure your piece is one-of-a-kind.
