HIC Harold Import Company Drink Muddler

The dual-ended design gives you more control over your ingredients. The textured end is perfect for breaking down fibrous fruits and releasing oils from citrus peels, while the smooth end is gentler, ideal for muddling delicate herbs like mint without bruising them and causing bitterness.

No, this muddler is not dishwasher safe. Because it is crafted from natural bamboo, it should be hand-washed with warm, soapy water and dried immediately to prevent the wood from warping or cracking.

The muddler measures 8.5 inches in length. This is a standard size that provides enough leverage to reach the bottom of most cocktail shakers and mixing glasses comfortably without scraping your knuckles against the rim.

Bamboo is a non-porous and neutral material, so it will not absorb flavors or impart any woody taste into your cocktails. It is a clean, sustainable choice that leaves your ingredients tasting exactly as they should.

While not strictly required, applying a food-safe mineral oil occasionally can help maintain the bamboo's finish and prevent it from drying out over time. Simply wipe it on, let it soak in, and wipe off any excess before your next use.
