The Inspiration

When we created Ampato Coffee our intent was always to bring the Peruvian Highlands right into your Kitchen. Out there, it doesn’t matter where you look, mountains and volcanoes that are millions of years old are always part of your view. 

So there was no question that our very first Ampato product had to be a pour-over kettle. Not only an essential pour-over coffee making accessory but also the manifestation of volcanoes in the real world. While you will probably not brew your coffee with hot magma (even though we would be all over that) you will still be using your brand new kettle to heat an element of our earth - water. Which then will finally aid you in making your perfect cup of coffee in the morning. 

With that being said, we proudly present the Ariq pour-over kettle. Why Ariq? It’s the word for “Volcano” in the Quechua language. The language of the ancient people of Peru. Like a volcano and the ancient Quechua language, we want to bring you a kettle that will withstand generations of use. 

The Ariq is the best kettle we could possibly build. Even though you can’t heat magma in there, we tried to get as close as possible during our development phase. We pair this with a timeless design that will always bring your thoughts to the awe-inspiring volcanoes of the Peruvian highlands when you take a look at it on your stove.
