Barrida Spring Loaded Bombilla

An innovative 3-piece stainless steel bombilla designed for smooth sipping and effortless cleanup. Whether you’re new to mate or a daily drinker, the Barrida offers both elegance and performance.

Multi-Layer Filter System
This bombilla features a spring-loaded filter that slides open for easy rinsing and locks tight when closed. Multiple layers catch even fine yerba particles for a clean, clog-free drink every time.

Inspired by the Dance
The name “Barrida” comes from the sweeping technique in Argentine tango. Just like the dance, the bombilla combines grace and movement. When open, the extended spring creates a striking silhouette reminiscent of a tango pose.

Simple to Use, Easy to Clean
To sip: Slide the spring filter closed. To clean: Pull the lower cover down, let the spring expand, and rinse. That’s it. No stuck leaves or hard-to-reach spots.

Built for Everyday Use
Crafted entirely from stainless steel, the Barrida is corrosion-resistant, durable, and designed for years of mate sessions. Compact enough for travel, reliable enough for daily rituals.

Length: 6 ¾ in
Width: ½ in
Material: 3-piece stainless steel construction for durability and easy cleaning
Filter Type: Spring-loaded removable filter system with multiple layers
Mouthpiece: Slightly curved for comfortable sipping

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a bombilla, and how is it used?
A bombilla is a metal straw with a built-in filter, traditionally used for drinking yerba mate. Simply insert the bombilla into the loose leaf tea after preparation and sip. The filter keeps the tea leaves from entering your mouth, giving you a smooth drinking experience.

Which type of bombilla is best for Uruguayan yerba mate?
Spoon bombillas are the best choice for Uruguayan yerba mate due to their slimmer profile and the increased number of pores in the bombilla tip, which allows for optimal filtration of the fine-cut leaves commonly used in Uruguay.

How do I clean the bombilla?
To clean your bombilla, flip it and run water through the filter to push any debris out of the mouth of the bombilla. Each bombilla also comes with a cleaning brush for easy maintenance. Simply insert the brush into the straw to remove any residue. Regular cleaning will help maintain quality and ensure a clean, fresh taste.

Are the bombillas safe to use with hot drinks? Both stainless steel and alpaca silver bombillas are made from heat-resistant materials, ensuring they stay cool to the touch, even when used with hot beverages like yerba mate or other teas.

What makes these bombillas eco-friendly?
These bombillas are reusable, reducing the need for disposable straws or tea bags. By using a stainless steel or alpaca silver bombilla, you contribute to minimizing waste, making it an eco-friendly choice for tea lovers who care about sustainability.

What is the difference between stainless steel and alpaca silver bombillas?
Stainless steel bombillas are known for their durability, rust resistance, and modern, sleek design, making them ideal for everyday use. Alpaca silver bombillas, also known as "German silver," offer a more traditional aesthetic with a unique luster and are often handcrafted, providing a more artisanal experience.

How do I keep my alpaca silver bombilla beautiful? To maintain the shine of your alpaca silver bombilla, you can use a food safe silver polish specifically designed for alpaca or German silver. Apply a small amount of polish to a soft cloth and gently rub the bombilla, then rinse thoroughly with warm water and dry completely. Regular polishing will help keep your alpaca silver bombilla looking beautiful and prevent tarnish.

Can I use these bombillas with teas other than yerba mate?
Yes! Both stainless steel and alpaca silver bombillas are versatile and can be used with any loose leaf tea, including green tea, chamomile, and herbal blends. They offer a unique and enjoyable way to drink your favorite teas.

"Practical solution at a competitive price. It does what it sets out to do -- no clogs. (Do note that I've only ever tried it with Argentinean mate. ) You won't be pressing the most beautiful mountains with this straw, but if you do make one, it doesn't interfere with the mountain's integrity any more than a smaller bombilla would. I'd be interested to see how this would hold up to chimarrao."

Barrida Bombilla Works Great

"This bombilla works great for me. I haven't had good luck with the spoon type for some reason. This Barrida spring loaded bombilla does exactly what it's supposed to do. It filters Yerba Mate very well. Support the 'Crew', buy your supplies here!!"
