Martin Fierro Torpedo Imperial Black

A torpedo-shaped imperial gourd from Martin Fierro in black leather, finished with a chiselled wide alpaca ring and a double bronze border. Handmade in Argentina.

Why you'll like it:

• The torpedo shape sits naturally in your hand and is a favourite in Uruguay.
• Chiselled alpaca ring with a double bronze border: one of the most detailed gourds we sell.
• Natural calabash inside, black leather outside, handmade in Argentina.

Before first use: A natural calabash needs curing. Fill it with used, wet yerba and hot (not boiling) water, leave it for 24 hours, then empty it and let it dry completely.

Care: Empty it after every session and let it dry open to the air. Keep the leather dry: wipe it with a soft cloth and never soak the gourd or put it in the dishwasher.

Pairs well with: a long premium bombilla such as the Bombilla Pico de Loro, and Canarias.
