Enhance your Mixology Skills with Winco Wooden Muddler in Lacquered Walnut Review

Good product for the price. My constructive criticism: don't put the SKU sticker on the end you're used to getting dirty. I have tried soap, olive oil, citrus juice and various spirits but have not been able to remove the adhesive residue. Put a sticker on the side of the handle, if there is one, or it will bleed into beverages made with it over time.

Nice color and shape. He's so easy. I mean, for a slob I definitely want some weight behind it, otherwise I feel like it will pop with enough pressure. But this one if not maintained I have a feeling the low density wood will dry out and you will have problems. But I think for the price you can't complain. I only needed it to make drinks during quarantine. I only pick it up once a month so it should last a while if I clean it properly!

This is a nice sturdy little pestle that feels very comfortable in the hand and works effectively when mixing all kinds of drinks. One caveat is that a dark stain or surface doesn't hold up very well, especially with any kind of vigorous rubbing. Even with careful maintenance, acids and friction will wear away the finish over time, revealing dull and light colored wood.

But putting varnish on something you're about to smash, something you're about to swallow is not a good idea. If I had more time I would buy a solid wood conical rolling pin, saw it in half and get…

It's hard not to give these 4 stars but something needs to be said. I bought this for my home bar, thought the price was too good to be true! Well that was kind of the case, if you have access to decent sandpaper this can "almost" be solved. So, as I said, this is made of lacquered wood. One that obviously easily dissolves with hard alcohol (which you use to make drinks), so I figured I'd grind up the mash (the part that does the squeezing). After sanding the major faces I found out the problem
