Barspoon with Red Cap 23 cm

The ice clinks against the glass as the shaft turns quietly between your fingers, chilling the drink without diluting it through haste. The red knob at the end of the handle is the first thing you notice - and what makes this bar spoon easy to spot in a drawer full of tools.

The Expert's Description

The Bar Spoon with Red Knob 23 cm is a bar spoon - the long, twisted tool bartenders use to stir cocktails and layer drinks - marked out by the red knob at the end of the handle.

The twisted shaft is not just a design detail. The twists let the spoon be rolled gently between the fingers, so the drink is stirred evenly without straining the wrist. At 23 cm, it fits most mixing glasses and tall cocktail glasses.

Design & Material

The red knob at the end works both as a visual accent and as a solid grip point when the spoon is used to layer a drink - pour slowly along the twisted shaft, and the different layers settle neatly on top of one another in the glass.

Use & Care

Roll the shaft gently between two fingers to stir a drink without knocking the ice around too much, or use the flat back to pour carefully when layering a cocktail. Rinse the spoon after use and let it dry before putting it back in the drawer.

The technique of pouring a drink slowly down the back of a twisted bar spoon is called "layering", used to create cocktails and shots with clearly separated, coloured layers, because the gentle flow stops the liquids from mixing.
