How To Keep Your Wine Fresh

The brand new Private Preserve Wine Preserver is a very unique bar tool. If you're the type of person that doesn't finish a bottle of wine in one night this is the perfect tool for you. The Wine Preserver is an easy way to keep your un-finished wine fresh for longer. Simply spray the Wine Preserver into your bottle and it will replace the air with a balanced mixture of nonflammable and tasteless carbon dioxide, nitrogen and argon gas. I know it sounds very scientific like a chemistry class lesson. So, a better way of describing how it works is that it slows the natural aging process of wine and spirits for days or even weeks. One can of the Private Preserve Wine Preserver can be used on up to 120 bottles of wine or spirits. Another great thing about this tool is that it does not contribute to ozone depletion because it does not contains CFCs (chlorofluorocarbon). The Wine Preserver also makes a great (less than $10) gift for any wine/spirit enthusiast. Shop the Private Preserve Wine Preserver HERE

NEW and Exclusive!

Come see our newest product! The Rosle Garlic Cutter, available exclusively at Chef Tools, is an innovative new way to perfectly dice garlic in seconds. It works just like a pepper mill. Simply load peeled cloves into the chamber and twist to yield a uniform dice. The Rosle Garlic Cutter is made of solid 18/10 stainless steel for the durability you'd expect from a Rosle product. It also completely disassembles for quick and easy cleaning. The Rosle Garlic Cutter comes with a lifetime warranty and can be used with many other things like jalapenos, radishes and shallots. You can also store the Garlic Cutter in your refrigerator for quick garlic whenever you want to add some to your dish. The Garlic Cutter has also made a permanent spot next to our other grill-side tool favorites. We had a blast (and were left with very full stomachs) after shooting video for this tool. We made steak, asparagus, chicken, garlic bread, pasta, and more. Check out all 5 videos for the Rosle Garlic Cutter by clicking the the "chef demo" button on this page to open the video player.
