What is a Tinto?

A Tinto is more than coffee — it is Colombia’s daily ritual.

Across streets, homes and plazas, Tinto accompanies conversations, pauses and farewells. It is a smooth, aromatic coffee, enjoyed slowly — the way our grandmothers used to prepare it.

This kit brings that ritual into your home.

The Traditional Tinto Ritual includes:

• Hand-painted cup
  Each cup is carefully selected and hand-painted with patterns inspired by Wayúu culture. No two pieces are the same — subtle variations make each one unique.
• Traditional Colombian Olleta (approx. 350 ml)
  The olleta is the heart of the Tinto ritual.
  In Colombia, coffee has been prepared this way for generations: directly in the olleta — no machines, no pressure, just hot water, coffee and time.
  This piece is individually selected and hand-painted for this ritual.
• Hand-crafted coaster (punch needle)
  Fully handmade using the punch-needle technique. Inspired by Wayúu patterns, it complements the cup and olleta as part of one cohesive set.
• Colombian coffee Pacandé — 250 g
  100% Colombian coffee, smooth and aromatic — ideal for traditional Tinto preparation.
• 3 reusable cotton coffee filters
  Washable, durable and a sustainable alternative to disposable filters.
• Traditional brewing instructions
