Eucalypt is a family with literally hundreds of trees in it.
Generally its not considered a carving wood, far easier options out there.

It is definitely not an easy wood to carve, crazy grains that like to pop out.

Very nice! How is it treated? I oiled mine, but a more durable finish would be nice. Most importantly, does it fit in your mouth? Mine came out like one of those Chinese soup spoons; the Japanese call them renge. Maybe influence from my Time in the east
Right now it's just sealed with super glue, then buffed out. I know some wood turners who do that with wooden goblets.
