It’s pourspout time! Yes, we talked for 12+ minutes all about these bad boys. Surprisingly enough, I learned a lot about how they can help bars run smoothly (and quickly)!
What is a Pourspout?
Chances are you already knew this one – basically it’s a nozzle that you stick on the end of an open bottle of that will both regulate the flow and allow you to access your spirits quickly (without having to take off the cap every time.) They look just like the picture above, (though I’m actually cheating – those are our olive oil bottles from our kitchen! Don’t tell…)
