ALGARROBO WOOD AND SHAPE - This mate is made from the Algarrobo tree which grows near the Gran Chaco region in Argentina. Algarrobo is known for its resilience and ability to be shaped very well. This allows for beautiful curves to be carved into this mate perfectly fitting the hand. The exterior has a smooth polish for smooth handling and looks. The curved stainless steel rim adds to the beauty and durability of the mate.

CRUZ DE MALTA - Suave & Duradera yerba mate hits the spot with a great combination of smooth and long lasting yerba. The yerba contains larger cut leaves to allow for durability.

THE LIBERTAD GOURD- The gourd is about 3 ½ in wide and 4 in high. It weighs in at 8 oz and has a volume of around 6 oz. The key material is Algarrobo wood with a dark brown exterior glaze.

HOW DO I CURE THE WOODEN GOURD? - We recommend filling the gourd with used yerba mate and letting it sit for 24 hours to create a proper seal. Alternatives are to rub whisky on the inside of the gourd and let it sit for 24 hours. After this 24 hours, you’re ready to go

HOW DO I MAINTAIN THE GOURD? - To maintain your wooden mate, try not to leave yerba in the mate once you finish drinking from it. Gently wash the mate and dry it after each use. Let it dry with the opening facing up to allow for good airflow. Do not leave it soaking in water to avoid splitting and mildew. After multiple uses, feel free to rub mineral oil on the exterior and let it sit for about 3 hours. Remove the excess oil after by gently wiping it down with cloth or a paper towel. Your mate will have a nice renewed shine.
