🌿 Why Choose a Calabash Gourd?

A Traditional Experience
Calabash gourds are the original vessel for drinking mate and remain a favorite for their natural ability to enhance taste. The organic material subtly interacts with the yerba, creating a richer, more aromatic brew.

Natural & Eco-Friendly
This mate gourd is wrapped in natural brown Argentinian leather, combining sustainability with classic gaucho style. Each purchase supports biodiversity conservation across the Jaguar Corridor, a vital region stretching from the southwestern U.S. to northern Argentina.

Made with Care
Due to the handmade nature of our yerba mate gourds, no two are alike. Slight variations in shape, texture, or leather tone are part of the artisanal beauty.

⚠️ Care & Maintenance

Calabash gourds offer a deep cultural experience, but they do require attention. To avoid mold or cracking:

  • Rinse immediately after each use

  • Allow to fully dry between uses

  • Cure the gourd properly before first use

5/5

“I tried the Premium Yerba Mate with Stems. Excellent flavor and no dust. The flavor won't change with different water temperatures.”

5/5

“This yerba doesn't produce acidity like traditional yerba mate and maintains the flavor for longer. I brewed at a very low temperature. The taste is sweeter than other yerbas. Even the last mate brews excellently!”
