Bombillas come in all shapes, styles and sizes.

How do you know which one is right for you?

Here are a few ideas that will help point you in the right direction.

Do you want style?

Then you should opt for a classic reed style bombilla or possibly a fancy one with an intricate design of silver and gold.

How important is durability?

You can get a sturdy stainless steel unbreakable bombilla with a screw off filter here.

Do you just want something cheap to try out?

Just pick up the cheapest one you can find. Some may have a tinny or metallic taste especially if it’s not stainless or nickel but it will let you get a feel for the traditional method of drinking if you don’t have anyone to try it with.
