Review on KITESSENSU Cocktail Martini Strainer Stainless by Tres Carmon

Need a hit on bar and wine tools

I have a shaker set that came with other tools but it is a boston shaker which looks like two glasses upside down. While this works well, I decided to give this cobbler style a try as I have fairly small hands and liked the idea of just shaking one instead of keeping the lid on the other. I like that it is possible to buy without all the tools and at a good price. This works perfectly for a Brandy Alexander I sample blend and I can shake it with one hand with the finger extended to cover the insurance cap. The cap measures exactly one fluid ounce to the brim. The seals are tight and there are no leaks. The built-in filter handles ice well. The stainless steel is durable and got my drink nice and cold very quickly. The whole shaker is very easy to clean. The only issue I had was mine had a slight crease in the bottom center so it wouldn't sit flat on the counter, but I'm going to hit it with a hammer a bit. There's a slightly rounded edge around the bottom of the base so it sits flat once I press on the center.

Pros
  • Commercial Material - Bartender Shaker Set Upgraded 18/8 stainless steel is specially thickened (0.8mm) to resist rusting for a lifetime. It is finished with a black matte finish, airtight and scratch resistant.
Cons
  • Very expensive
