Description

A jigger has ONE job, and this one just does it better.

Not only does our stainless steel Japanese jigger have the standard marking lines (1/2 oz, 1 oz, 1 1/2 oz and 2 oz), but we worked with our factory to add a bar spoon and 1/4 oz on the smaller side, as well as 1 1/4 and 1 3/4 oz on the larger side. Trust me, if your recipe calls for only 1/4 oz of something, you’re probably going to want to get it right. (I’m looking at you, Luxardo.) And a standard cocktail jigger just won't cut it.

Our stainless steel cocktail jigger is made from stainless steel 304. (That means no weird rust spots appearing – the first or thousandth time through the dishwasher. )

Calibrated for accuracy with more measurement markings, this is the best Japanese jigger on the market. Better detail = better drinks!

The rolled lip reduces drips, and handy two-sided construction keeps you moving fast. This Japanese cocktail jigger your trusty sidekick when you’re in the weeds, and it features a reinforced weld for ulimate durability.

Rounded shape creates an ergonomic and comfortable hold, while the beautiful polished finish keeps it looking sleek on your bar.

Two-sided: 1oz smaller side and 2oz on the larger side

No matter what drink you're making, this is the best cocktail jigger for the job!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Japanese jigger and how is it different from a standard jigger?

A Japanese jigger is a tall, narrow jigger with volume marking inside, allowing for consistent measurement with less spillage due to its shape.

What materials are Japanese jiggers typically made of?

In general, jiggers are made from stainless steel, although you may see plastic ones on the market as well.

Are Japanese jiggers easy to clean and maintain?

You can just throw your A Bar Above jigger into the dishwasher after use and then dry thoroughly before storing.

Are Japanese jiggers available in different sizes with different measurement markings? 

There are plenty of options on the market. We felt strongly about designing a jigger that allowed for 2 full ounces with markings every 1/4 ounce so that you can make any cocktail recipe with just one jigger.

Can Japanese jiggers be used for both professional and home bartending? 

Absolutely! Wherever you make cocktails, make sure to measure out your ingredients for precise balance. A jigger will help you with that, no matter your level of cocktail experience.

Can Japanese jiggers be used for measuring ingredients other than alcohol?

Of course! Jiggers can be used to measure any small amount of liquid ingredients.

Can Japanese jiggers be used for both shaken and stirred cocktails?

Definitely! No matter what kind of cocktail you're making, you'll need to measure your ingredients first.

Are the measurement markings easy to read?

Yes, the engraved markings are clear and permanent. They’re designed for quick, accurate reading during service.

Is it durable with frequent use?

Absolutely. The reinforced 304 stainless steel build is made for constant, high-volume bar use without bending or fading.

What cocktails can this jigger make?

Any cocktail that requires precise measuring, from Margaritas to Martinis to Old Fashioneds. Its 1/8–2 oz markings cover virtually all standard recipes.

How do jiggers help with precise measurement in cocktail recipes?

A jigger is specifically designed with measurement markings so that you're not just guessing how much of each ingredient is going into your final cocktail. Our jiggers have markings every 1/4 ounce and are calibrated for precision so that your drinks are always balanced and delicious.

Who is this cocktail jigger for?

This alcohol measurer is made for everyone: beginner, intermediate, and advanced home bartenders as well as professional mixologists.

What occasion can I use this jigger tool for?

This alcohol jigger is meant for everyday use and is great for making drinks for special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, dinner parties, and date nights.

Copper jigger looses its coating over time

Love most all the products and we own them in both standard silver (stainless) and in copper. unfortunately, the copper jigger has lost most all the coating after about a year so that it is nearly silver. One hopes it is coming off in washing (which it says dishwasher save), but one naturally has to be concerned it is also coming off in our drinks. Great products overall, but this ones a disconcerting dud. Hard to take a pic due to reflections, but I tried, including a copper shaker and silver jigger for reference.

Hi David,

Thank you for your feedback and I totallu understand your concern. PVD is a very hard, dense, and chemically inert finish that doesn’t dissolve in water, alcohol, or acidic beverages. If the coating ever wears, it happens as tiny, dust-like particles that either wash away in the dishwasher or remain in amounts so small—and so chemically inactive—that they aren’t absorbed by the body.
All of our products are made from food-grade stainless steel and use PVD coatings that meet food-contact safety standards. Any wear you may see affects appearance only, not safety.

I would be happy to offer you a replacement. I will reach out to you directly!

Love A Bar Above!

This jigger arrived quickly, in great shape. It's a great weight, and I love that there are 1/4 oz marks. I couldn't find Japanese or stepped jiggers with 1/4 oz measurements anywhere. Especially huge shout out to their customer service who was incredibly responsive and helpful when I had an order issue ordering through a third party.

Great jigger, love the additional lines

Looks great. I sought out this one because it has more measurement lines than the standard jiggers (like 1oz on the big side, 1/4 and bar spoon on the small side, etc etc... several more, see product description). Pretty hard to find a jigger with the additional lines like this, which is surprising because they're very useful. Thanks y'all!

Hi there! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a positive review. We're stoked to hear that our Stainless Steel Japanese Jigger is meeting your needs and that you appreciate the additional measurement lines. Chris was sure to add the additional lines because as a bartender himself he knows how useful they are! Thank you for choosing our jigger and for your support! Cheers!

Disappointingly flimsy - can't read the fine print

I bought another one-sided jigger with indentations on the outside, but it felt a little lightweight so I decided to spring for a Japanese-style with a 1 and 2oz cup on either end. Maybe I'll get the feel for it, but the measures are so tiny and on the inside, they're basically useless. Might as well just estimate. Not worth returning - not worth using either. Life goes on.

Efficient

Does the job efficiently - would be better if the very top was not the 1ounce or2 ounce line. Really the only minor criticism.
