Not Just Any Old Box Grater

Here's a great new tool. The Cuisipro 4-Sided Box Grater with Ginger Grater Base combines razor sharp blades with a comfort grip handle. It feels great in your hand, but it performs better than you would expect. It has surface glide technology which makes it a lot easier for the average person to grate cheese, potatoes and vegetables. The removable base doubles as a ginger grater and the corners of the Cuisipro Box Grater have calibrated dry measuring marks. It's another great innovation from a company that has been making impressive products for years, with many more to come.

NEW Premium Teas from Tienxi

Premium Matcha Green Tea Powder from Tienxi

The Tienxi Tea Company imports some of the finest handcrafted teas from China and Taiwan. And they have just added two new varieties to their product line. The first, Tienxi's Matcha Green Tea Powder (pictured left), is a 100-gram bag of premium powdered green tea. It gives you the many health benefits of green tea (like EGCGs), but one of the most surprising things about this products is the taste. Simply add 1-gram of the Matcha Powder to 250ml of water and shake with ice in a cocktail-type shaker and enjoy. It is also pretty delicious as a hot tea. The second new item from Tienxi is their Hand-Picked Premium Jasmine Pearl Tea, available in a 2-oz, 4-oz, and 8-oz variety.

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
