MATE, SIMPLY
THE ARTISANAL EXPERTISE OF CERAMICS
This handcrafted mate kit excels in its field due to its simplicity of use and maintenance , making it an ideal candidate for enjoying traditional mate without worrying about cleaning.
As for our ceramic gourd, its custom-made production by our craftsman, Cristian, in Uruguay offers you a unique mate gourd, accessible and within everyone's reach.
AT THE HEART OF CRAFTSMANSHIP
It is after this that our craftsman, Cristian, begins his meticulous work.
By hand, he will cover the gourd with leather and form feet to protect and stabilize it . He will then make a custom-made rim and hand-carve it before attaching it to the top of the gourd used for maté.
That's why our gourds are unique . The total production time, from the gourd growing until it leaves Cristian's workshop, is between 12 and 18 months .
Why mate?
Mate is a traditional South American beverage made from the leaves of the yerba mate tree. It is rich in antioxidants , vitamins , and minerals , and has stimulating properties similar to those of coffee and tea. It can help improve concentration , energy , and digestion .
How to prepare and consume maté?
Mate is traditionally prepared in a gourd and consumed with a bombilla, a metal filter straw. The gourd is filled about two-thirds with yerba mate, hot water (not boiling, around 70-80°C) is added, and the sipping is done through the bombilla.
When to drink maté?
Yerba mate can be consumed at any time of day, depending on individual preferences and needs. Because it contains caffeine, it is often enjoyed in the morning or early afternoon for an energy boost and improved concentration.
What does maté taste like?
We carefully select our different yerba mate for their exceptional flavors: sweet and complex , very close to the flavor of a green tea .
