Cocktail Kingdom Koriko® Large Weighted Shaking Tin

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Built to last, wonderful product. Recommend for any professionals that need to use this on a daily basis.

If you want to step up your home bartending, buy this. I'd used cobbler shakers for years just because that's what I had, but I feel the versatility and ease of use of a Boston shaker make it the winner hands-down. This is the only brand of Boston shaker I've used, but I'm completely happy with it. (I bought the large and small as a set.)

Very durable works with ease & separates easily with a simple tap (no leakage at all) from its smaller tin when done shaking your cocktail. Highly recommend.
