The Mortar and Pestle

Updated: May 22, 2022

Mortars and pestles are the old school blenders and grinders and being described as small, mobile, hand-operated mills that don't require electricity or fuel to operate

“I truly believe there is a mortar and pestle for everyone.. It's one of those things where you'll know it when you see it.”

They come in a variety of sizes and material. Substances wet or dry, are used and by pounding, pressing and rotating the pestle in the mortar, you can create the exact texture and consistency you desire.


Go Get One.. No, Seriously.


I truly believe there is a mortar and pestle for everyone.. It's one of those things where you'll know it when you see it. I will never forget how excited I was to buy my first set. For teas, bath bombs, oils and creams. Now it's something I can't wait to pull off the shelf.
