How to use the Argentinian Crest Bombilla The bombilla is a kind of straw traditionally used in South America to consume mate. It is composed of a metal rod which has a filter at one end, here a spring. Inserted into the calabash, it thus allows the mate to be sucked up, like a straw, without leaf residue. This bombilla can be disassembled at the filter level to allow optimal cleaning. Discovered several centuries ago by the Guarani people, mate is today in Argentina synonymous with conviviality and largely replaces tea and coffee. Yerba mate Mate is the most popular drink in South America. It is obtained from the leaves of ilex Paraguariensis, a shrub of the Holly family.
