It is a traditional company of bars and cafes installed in Barcelona (Spain) in the late nineteenth century. It still exists today as a trademark; and as one of the countries from which they imported their coffee was Brazil, surely the name comes from an indigenous nation that occupied the Brazilian southeast, although for some reason they changed its accentuation, since the tribe is not called 'Tupinamba' but tupinambá. See Tupi .
