What to keep in mind so your tankard lasts as long as possible:

To enjoy your unique tankard to the full for a long time, remember a few simple rules:

1. Cold Drinks Only: Horn doesn't like heat. So, don't use it for hot drinks (coffee, tea, mulled wine, etc.), as it could get damaged.
2. Alcohol Limit: It's intended for drinks with an alcohol content of up to 20% ABV. Stronger spirits could affect the internal lining.
3. No Dishwashers: The dishwasher is strictly off-limits! High temperatures and harsh detergents would ruin it.
4. Gentle Washing: Before the first use and after each subsequent use, wash it by hand under lukewarm running water. Don't use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.
5. Extra Care (Recommended): For a longer life and a lovely sheen, you can rub a little beeswax onto the inside and outside from time to time (after washing and drying).
6. Natural Material: Remember, this is a natural product. Over time and with use, minor signs of ageing or small cracks might appear. This is normal and simply adds to its authentic character and charm.
