Cocktail Kingdom Koriko® Large Weighted Shaking Tin

Great Boston shaker set. Seals well and mixes awesome cocktails. Easy to clean. Will probably last a lifetime. Very cool. Recommend.

I also have the small tin that pairs with this. I’ve been a professional bartender and bar manager for over 15 years. I have worked countless bars from dives, casual and fine dining and craft cocktail bars. I’ve used every brand of tins there is. Koriko is THE standard. Perfect weight. Stays put on the bar, but feels light in the hand. Great seal but flexible enough to break very easily. Absolutely perfect. 10/10.

Honestly I just bought this (and it's smaller mate) for fun. Did I need another cocktail shaker? Not really. I've got several. But what I didn't have was a set of classic tins with weighted bottoms. These are just gorgeous and a pleasure to use. There are other shaker formats that are more beginner friendly (the Elevated Craft shaker is really excellent) but my expectations were fully met. The Koriko shakers look great and work great and impress the patrons at my home bar. Do you really need these? Nope, the budget set up of a tin paired with a pint glass is just as practical. But if you want a bit of flash and have the cash, go for it.

I bought the large shaker along with a small shaker four years ago. I am extremely happy with their performance. It’s seals well and to open, just need to warm it with your hands for a few seconds. I make the perfect caipirinha with it and I use the large shaker to stir 5 to 1 gin martinis. Overall, it is an excellency addition to my bar. Also, after regular use for 4 years, the is no evidence of rust as other reviews have observed.

Have the smaller tin to mate to this one. Very happy with the function and fit. Welded base gives me confidence that the weight won't come off or leak. The upper part of the cup is bendy in the perfect way to mate with the smaller tin which I also purchased. Doesn't not a lot of effort fit the two pieces together. A good smack after shaking indicates a really nice seal between the two cups and means you won't get your drink all over your shirt or running down your arm, very reassuring.

The malleability of the tin is perfect. Stainless steel also makes cleanup an absolute breeze.

I cannot fault these, they are the best shaker I've ever used, even with something carbonated in there they can hold it together without a leak.

So i bought this and the small shaker off of the recommendation of Anders Erikson (YouTube) and they are fantastic!Someone mentioned that the shaker felt like plastic but not ours. Someone else didn’t realize that this is only one of the shakers, so consider this your notice 😉Last but not least, we’ve used these twice. So I’ll try to remember to come back in a year with an update.
