Note: The crimping around the edges on the back of the filter may have tiny gaps. It's not an opening, but may trap some finer particles that need to be picked out.
Adorned with a bronze beak and spiral engraving from top to bottom, this is an eye-catcher. A slight bend near the beak makes for comfortable sipping, and the length makes it suitable for most gourds.
Dimensions: 7 in. long

Care / Maintenance
Mate Gourds
Before your first use, it's best to cure your mate gourd (if made of calabash or wood) to remove debris and reduce bitter tannins.
- Fill with hot water (170°F / 77 °C) and steep for 20 minutes.
- Pat dry with a paper towel.
- Dry gourd on its side in a well-ventilated spot (a fan works best).
Bombillas
New bombillas should be cleaned to remove any potential manufacturing residue.
- Boil in water with 1 tbsp baking soda for 10–15 minutes.
- Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
Yerba Mate
Keep yerba mate in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. For green yerba, store in the fridge/freezer to preserve freshness and prevent degradation. An airtight container works best.
