Rojo Salteño Imperial Mate Gourd

The Rojo Salteño brings together two worlds: the classic look of traditional mate gourds and the convenience of modern materials. Wrapped in smooth burgundy leather and crowned with ornate alpaca silver, it honors Argentine craftsmanship while offering an easy-to-maintain stainless steel interior.

Tradition on the Outside, Innovation Inside
This imperial-style gourd offers the warmth and beauty of natural materials without the need to cure or worry about mold. It’s the perfect solution for those who want to experience traditional mate without the traditional upkeep.

What’s Included
• 1 Rojo Salteño imperial mate gourd
• 1 Stainless steel bombilla
• 1 Cleaning brush
• 1 Quick Start Guide
• Maybe a few surprise extras!

Why It Works
This gourd delivers the classic Argentine feel with a modern twist: easier cleaning, long-term durability, and a beautiful design that stands out. Ideal for both new and seasoned mate drinkers.

Materials and Dimensions
Wrapped in Argentine burgundy leather, the gourd measures approximately 3.5 inches wide and 4 inches tall. It weighs about 11.7 ounces and holds around 5 ounces of liquid. The ornate rim is made of gold-tinted alpaca silver with a stainless steel lip. The torpedo-style base sits comfortably in your hand.

Stainless Steel Interior
The fully stainless steel interior eliminates the need for curing. It resists mold, simplifies cleanup, and retains the authentic yerba mate flavor without absorbing residue. Just rinse after use and you’re ready to go again.

Accessories Included
The set comes with a 6.1-inch stainless steel Yerba Crew bombilla and a 7-inch stainless steel cleaning brush with nylon bristles to help you maintain your bombilla over time.

Care Instructions
Avoid soaking the leather or leaving it in direct sunlight. To clean, simply rinse the interior and use the included brush to clean the bombilla. For more info, visit the FAQs tab.

Note: Each gourd is handmade and may vary slightly in shape, leather tone, or rim detail. Every piece is one of a kind.

Will my gourd look exactly like the picture?
The quick answer is “mostly”. We aim to keep the gourds about 85% consistent with the design but the handmade nature of the production allows for color and shape variations. Each gourd is unique and one of a kind.

Do I need to cure the gourd?
No need to cure it! Because the interior is stainless steel, just give it a quick rinse before your first use and you're good to go.

How do I maintain the gourd?
To maintain the leather exterior of your mate gourd, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth after each use to remove any residue. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or excessive moisture to preserve its quality and appearance over time. The interior can just be rinsed with water after each use.
