Rosle Boston Shaker

Rosle USA

Rosle USA

Great product!

+ Worth the money
+ Solid piece of equipment

This item arrived quickly, and as described. The mixing glass is quite substantial, very sturdy, with easy to read measuring amounts up one side. It takes some practice transitioning from a cocktail shaker, but is easy to use, and much better...no sticking together of parts! Per Alton Brown's ...

Jigger, Beaker and Glass: Drinking Around the World
Charles Baker

The Derrydale Press, 2001

The Gentleman's Companion

+ A classic tale of classics
+ Classic, but a word of caution

It should be noted first, that this book is a faithful reprint (all except the title and cover :-) of the classic "The Gentleman's Companion", first published in 1939. That first edition came as a two book set: "Exotic Drink Book", and "Exotic Cookery Book". The former is the book here in question, ...

This strainer along with the WMF Boston Cocktail Shaker make a GREAT set. A little "pricie" but worth the extra. You can shake up a cool refreshing Mojito on a hot summer day.
  
  











  



  
Julep Strainer

SHOPZEUS

SHOPZEUS

Adequate but irksome

This isn't an awful julep strainer, but it's rendered useless (barring a fair amount of effort) by the huge residue-depositing sticker across its entire convex face. If you don't have a handy supply of glue remover and the willingness to take the time to use it & then clean all trace of its ...
  
  











  



  
Rosle Long Bar Spoon

Rosle USA

Rosle USA

Elegant functional spoon

This spoon is graceful and very functional in a bar setting. The weight is nice. I actually prefer the round handle, as it aids in the smooth stirring of the cocktail. The twisted or flat barspoons require more dexterity for what I am trying to do. I also like the small spoon head, it ...

KitchenAid

Grate (Ha, ha!) Zester, and, you don't slice your fingers!

I have a lovely scar on my thumb from previous graters, which is why I was looking for a better one to replace the old one. Well, this little guy is awesome! The weight of the handle is so nice and you can get a good grip on the lemon, lime, orange, whatever you need to do. Kitchenaid utensils ...

Perfection - I use it everyday

+ Good but....

The other reviewers are living in LaLa land. Did they see the picture? This strainer is EXACTLY as advertised and I use it everyday to strain my loose tea. The hook on the top keeps it in place over my cup -- That's what it's for. A fine mesh is what I need. This is a perfect tool and I ...
