The PICO REY is a sturdy, premium alpaca bombiilla made for materos who want a smooth draw, strong filtration, and a more traditional feel.

Made from traditional alpaca silver, this bombilla has a polished finish, thick tubing, and a wide spoon-shaped filter. With more holes than most bombillons, it makes straining finer-cut yerbas much easier. It also features a tapered, bent mouthpiece for comfortable sipping.

Whether you're upgrading from a basic straw or looking for a more elegant spoon bombilla to match your mate, this one is built to be both functional and beautiful. Made in Uruguay.

Dimensions: 7.5 in. / 19 cm.

What's The Best Type Of Bombilla?
At Yerba Mate Lab, we only stock spoon bombillas after years of testing different kinds. Why? They offer the best filtration for all types of yerbas, and blow other types (coil, spring, slits) out of the water.

For the best filtration, look for bigger filter heads and ones with more holes, such as our 1000-hole bombas.

How To Clean Bombillas
Bombillas should be cleaned after every use with a thorough rinse under warm water. If made of stainless steel, soap can be used but is not mandatory and should be avoided with other materials.

Every 1-2 months, a deep clean should be done by boiling the bombillas in a pot with a tablespoon of baking soda for about 10 minutes.

Why Is My Bombilla Clogged?
A clogged bombilla can happen for several reasons with the main one being the preparation.

Some important things to note that affect clogging most are:

  • allowing the yerba to soak for 3-5 minutes on the initial pour
  • positioning the filter correctly at the bottom, under the mountain

If still experiencing clogging, we suggest pulling the bombilla up slightly (out of the water) and seeing if it clears.
