RACWPUSE Hawthorne Strainer

STRAIN WITH PRECISION.

A Hawthorne strainer in matte nickel and black walnut. Fine woven mesh, tight coil spring, zero ice in the glass.

The Philosophy

The last thing between your drink and the glass should be something you trust.

A great pour is a clean pour. No ice chips. No fruit pulp. No surprise mint leaves. The RACWPUSE Hawthorne strainer is built for one job: letting the drink through and keeping everything else out. It does that job, every single time, without drama.

01 / Craft

Woven by hand. Not stamped.

The center mesh is not a perforated plate. It is a hand-woven grid of stainless wire — over, under, over, under — each intersection locked by tension. The holes are smaller, the flow is smoother, and the cleanout is faster.

Surrounding the mesh, a ring of precision-drilled 2mm holes provides a second stage of filtration. Two stages, one clean pour.

02 / Engineering

Three systems. One clean pour.

01 — The Coil Spring
Approximately 50 tightly wound loops of stainless spring wire. It flexes to seal against any mixing glass or shaker rim — standard or wide. No gaps, no ice escape.
02 — The Woven Mesh
Hand-woven stainless grid at the center. Catches fruit pulp, mint leaves, and ice shards. Smoother flow than a perforated plate. Easier to rinse clean.
03 — The Tabs & Handle
Two stabilizing tabs rest on the rim. The walnut-handled grip extends for control. Press with your index finger, pour with confidence — the strainer stays put.

03 / Material

Matte nickel. Walnut grip.

The body is matte nickel-plated 304 stainless — corrosion-resistant, fingerprint-resistant, and built for the wet, acidic environment of a busy bar. No plating flaking. No rust spots.

The handle is inlaid with North American black walnut, hand-shaped and oil-finished. It stays warm in your hand even when the strainer is ice-cold. It gives you a grip that doesn't slip. And it looks like it belongs on a bar, not in a toolbox.

04 / Detail

The coil. Where the seal happens.

The coil spring is the heart of a Hawthorne strainer — and the part most brands get wrong. Ours is wound from 1.2mm stainless wire to a consistent 8mm loop diameter. It compresses evenly against any rim from 7cm to 9cm wide.

No gaps at the edges. No ice chips sneaking through. Just the drink, flowing clean into the glass.

Seat. Press. Pour.

Pouring through strainer
Seat
Place the strainer over the shaker or mixing glass. The tabs rest on the rim, the coil compresses to seal. One hand holds it steady.
Pulp and mint caught
Press
Index finger on the handle, thumb on the tab. Firm pressure keeps the strainer locked. The coil flexes inward, sealing every gap.
Dripping strainer
Pour
Tilt and pour. The drink flows through the mesh and perforated ring. Ice, pulp, and herbs stay behind. Clean glass, every time.
