This spoon style bombilla is simple to use, and is a popular shape in South America. This fair trade certified.

Quantity:

Guayakí welcomes another Fair Trade artisan to the family.

Ricardo Ferreyra hand-crafts an elegant spoon bombilla widely popular in South America, but Ricardo's are unique because they are 100% handmade from his small farm outside Buenos Aires, Argentina.

In thirty days work, Ricardo can create 100 spoon bombillas from stainless steel. This partnership with Guayakí is ideal because it allows Ricardo to earn a Fair Trade salary, and it allows him to work close to his family at home instead of in a factory where other bombillas are typically mass produced in South America.

We are happy to introduce Ricardo and to share his spirited work with our fellow mate lovers.

A Fair Trade Product.

Bombilla bombed out

By: R. Scott Prestwood of Ft. Walton Bch,, FL

Having been a Mate consumer for over a decade I have had the pleasure of using many different styles of bombillas. Among my favorites are the "original" bombilla from guayaki which opened for cleaning, had a gold tip and a subtle grace. My prize is a beautiful bombilla of sterling from Argentina, along with the gourd which has a sterling rim and base held by woven sterling threads around a hearty gourd. This new bombilla , although somewhat aesthetically pleasing has lost the functionality of disassembly to aid in cleaning and there is nothing worse than sucking up some dried up residue on that first draw because cleaning out the spoon thoroughly is almost impossible. Don't get me wrong, I'm not some corporate suit that whines about every little discomfort. I am an ARMY Infantry officer who has drained black water through a bandana in the jungles of central america to have something to drink , however; you asked my review and I submit my assessment in a positive manner for your consideration. Thank you.
