A robust granite mortar and pestle set that grinds spices, herbs, and nuts with minimal effort thanks to its rough interior and heavyweight design.

Advantages

The VESTO mortar is crafted from a single piece of high-density granite, ensuring it remains firmly in place during vigorous grinding. Its polished exterior is easy to wipe clean, while the unpolished interior offers the perfect abrasive surface to crush and grind ingredients efficiently. The ergonomic pestle, with its rounded end, fits comfortably in the hand and allows for precise control. With a substantial weight of approximately 3 kg, this mortar and pestle set stays put on the countertop, reducing the risk of slipping. The 350 ml capacity is ideal for preparing small to medium batches of fresh pastes, marinades, and spice blends.
