Yukiwa Gold Hawthorne Strainer
Yukiwa Gold Hawthorne Strainer
$28.95
These traditional Hawthorn strainers look stunning in gold and are just as classy as everything else made by Yukiwa. The strainer is one piece Japanese 18/8 stainless steel except for the coil which comes off easily for cleaning. The two prongs fit nicely on both shaker tins and mixing glasses. The + shape hole pattern is simple and classy. Yukiwa is etched into the handle but I like that there isn’t a brand logo cut out of the metal.
I’ve personally had the silver and gold Yukiwa Hawthorne strainers for over two years now and they both still look like new after nightly use. That being said, I don’t run them through the dishwasher because they’re easy enough to clean by hand.

- Solid, one piece design
- Coil removes easily for cleaning

Yukiwa Weighted Boston Shaker Tins
All Barware, Shakers
Let me tell you why this Weighted Boston Shaker is so awesome!
This beautiful shaker is made in Japan from 18/8 Japanese steel. The weight is incorporated in the shaker seamlessly , it's one piece. So if you like to bang your shakers together to seal them nothing is going to fall out after some heavy use.
The diameter of the tins are smaller then of the unweighted shaker tins so it is more comfortable to grip for the people with smaller hands or just for double shaking.
However you can still fit at least two martinis in one shaker.
They make a perfect seal and release every time.

M-TAKA Gold 50cc Bitters Bottle
All Barware, Bitters Bottles
These glass bitters bottles look great behind the bar or on the shelf at home. They’re simple, elegant, and add a dash of sophistication to your kit. If you’re a huge Harry Potter fan like I am they’ll make you feel like you’re mixing up a real magic potion. Who knows, maybe you are? 😉
Pretty is nice, but functional is better! This bottle is made by M-TAKA in Japan and is 50ml. It’s comfortable to hold between your fingers in a variety of positions and flip for a dash.
It’s also very important when making cocktails or creating new ones that the dash is consistent. Believe it or not it’s really something that can break the balance of your drink. I did a bit of quasi-scientific testing and determined that this dasher, when consistent force is applied, produces a 0.2ml dash give or take 0.02ml. It of course will change as the bottle gets very close to empty. Given that the bottle holds ~40ml or 225 dashes when filled to the top of the bulb I don’t think you’ll get too low during one shift. If you’re making 50 old fashioned’s in a row you may need a bigger bottle!
A few tips on a consistent dash:
$23.95
- Apply consistent force when dashing. Don’t be too gentle or forceful.
- Don’t let the bottle get almost empty.
- A common mistake is to flip the bottle over quickly as part of your first dash. Don’t do this! It traps an air bubble and makes your first dash really small. Instead, tilt it over a bit slower making sure there is no trapped air. Don’t worry, the bottle won’t leak but it will ensure your first dash is the same as your subsequent ones.
- Stylish and functional
- Comfortable to hold and use
- 50ml / 45ml when filled to the top of the bulb
- Holds ~225 dashes when filled aesthetically
- Produces ~0.2ml dash*

M-TAKA Yarai Mixing Glass
All Barware, Mixing Glasses
This 550ml mixing glass from M-TAKA is hands down the best bang for your buck! It’s hand blown, completely seamless, and it’s side walls aren’t needlessly thick.
The Japanese Yarai pattern is hand cut, not molded, into the glass and is sparklingly beautiful. What I think what I like the most about this mixing glass is that the inside bottom isn’t completely flat. The interior edge meets the base with a bevel and this curved transition makes stirring with a well angled bar spoon fluid and effortless. The base is also nice and thick making it stable and hard to knock over.
Like all blown glassware there might be a small bubble or imperfection. It’s perfectly normal!
