Olive Wood Muddler

Because this is a natural wood product, it is not dishwasher safe. Simply hand wash it with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately. To keep the wood from drying out, you can occasionally rub it with a food-safe mineral oil.

Olive wood is a dense, non-porous hardwood, which means it will not absorb the juices or flavors of the ingredients you muddle. It is an ideal, neutral material for cocktail preparation.

This muddler features a smooth head. It is designed to gently release the oils and juices from herbs and fruits without shredding them, which helps prevent bitter flavors in your drinks.

Yes, as a natural material, the olive wood will develop a unique patina with regular use. It also naturally oils itself over time, which helps maintain its durability and deepens the wood's character.

While the one-piece construction is very durable, this muddler is primarily designed for muddling herbs, citrus, and sugar. We recommend using a dedicated ice mallet or a heavy-duty metal muddler if you frequently crush ice.
