Fine Mesh Strainer
All Barware, Strainers
After a lot of searching I finally found an inexpensive fine mesh strainer I like. The mesh is rolled into the rim and held firmly in place. The handle is one piece that runs through the strainer and isn't spot welded on. It won't pop off and because it's stainless steel it won't discolor.
Did I mention that this is a fine mesh strainer? It's not so tightly woven that it's hard to clean but unlike other so called fine mesh coco strainers it will actually catch all your mint and basically all of your ice shards.
Also, I think it looks fantastic! More importantly though, I suppose, is that it's light and the basket is just the right size. I like that it's handle is properly proportioned and isn't so gigantic that it gets in my way!
$6.95
- Very fine mesh; catches ice and mint bits
- Mesh is rolled into the rim
- Handle runs through the rim; not spot welded on
- Not too long; 6.5” total and 3” handle
- Very light
- Made of stainless steel
- Dishwasher safe
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.
$69.95
- Made from Japanese 18/8 stainless steel
- Are very resistant to getting stuck together; I’ve never done it yet
- Stand up well to abuse
- Perfectly balanced
Yukiwa 30cm Silver Teardrop Barspoon
All Barware, Barspoons
These Yukiwa bar spoons are my favorite for a lot of reasons. The tight twist of the shaft feels great and makes them easy to control while stirring. The edges aren’t sharp but still provide a good grip. I’ve also noticed a lot of poorly designed bar spoons that have little to no curve at the spoon and I hate that; it’s like working with a flat paddle! The Yukiwa is set at a nice 30° angle. This angle helps when stirring to reduce agitation and keep air bubbles from forming in the liquid.
The teardrop at the top is perfectly sized and weighted to maintain a good balance; it isn’t top or bottom heavy at all. This makes it easier to maintain control and avoid the annoying clinking and clanking of the glass we all try to avoid! Lastly the spoon itself has nicely rounded edges, which may not seem like a big deal until you’ve seen some of the poorly stamped bar spoons that look like unfinished sheet metal.
A good stir is an art form. It takes lots of practice! A good barspoon is a pleasure to use, makes learning easier, and improves an already great stir.
Did I mention that these look fantastic? 😄

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*
