The horns used for this drinking horn come from domestic cattle (primarily from Africa, India, Brazil, or Nigeria), with the horn being a byproduct of meat production. To ensure its longevity, this natural product should only be cleaned with lukewarm water, a small amount of mild dish soap, and a soft bottle brush, as it is not dishwasher safe. Furthermore, hot, highly acidic, or carbonated beverages should not be poured into it, and the horn should be left to dry completely upside down after cleaning to prevent stress cracks.
