Description

This is a pair of small stainless steel thimble measures, one holding 25ml and the other 50ml, each a single straight-sided cup rather than the two-ended cone shape of a jigger or bell measure. Because each one only ever holds its stated volume, there's no judging where to stop pouring — you fill it and it's done, which some people find quicker and less error-prone than reading a fill line or a rim.

The trade-off is that you're handling two separate small measures instead of one double-ended tool, so they're easier to misplace and you'll pick up whichever one you need for that pour rather than flipping a single measure over. They stack inside each other for storage, which helps. For UK single and double spirit measures this pair matches the standard 25ml and 50ml exactly, so they're a straightforward choice if you want fixed, no-judgement pours rather than a jigger you read by eye.

Questions about this product

What's the advantage of two separate measures over one double-ended jigger?

Each thimble only ever holds one fixed volume, so there's no reading a fill line or judging the rim as you pour u2014 you fill it to the top and it's exactly 25ml or 50ml, every time. That makes them slightly quicker to use without thinking, especially for someone new to measuring spirits. The downside is you're keeping track of two small items instead of one, and picking up the right one for the pour you need.

Do these stack for storage?

Yes, the 25ml measure sits neatly inside the 50ml one, so the pair takes up little more drawer or shelf space than a single measure would on its own. Both are stainless steel, so they're dishwasher safe and easy to clean alongside the rest of your bar tools. Because they're separate pieces rather than one double-ended jigger, it's worth keeping them together in a small pot or tray so neither one goes missing when you reach for it mid-drink.
