Baltique Marrakesh Collection Muddler

This muddler is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the integrity of the layered birch wood, hand wash it with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately. Avoid soaking it in water to prevent the wood from warping or cracking.

Yes, the smooth head is designed to crush ingredients effectively without shredding them. This is ideal for releasing essential oils from mint or juices from citrus wedges without introducing bitter flavors from over-macerated rinds.

The muddler measures 8.875 inches in length. This size is standard for most cocktail shakers and mixing glasses, providing enough reach to comfortably muddle ingredients at the bottom of the vessel while keeping your knuckles clear of the rim.

While it is specifically designed for barware, the food-safe nature of the wood makes it suitable for crushing spices or herbs for cooking. However, keep in mind that wood can absorb strong odors and flavors over time.

The laser engraving is a surface-level customization that does not impact the structural integrity or the smooth grip of the handle. It is purely aesthetic and will not interfere with your ability to muddle effectively.
