Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>

\u2022\u2022\u2022 Cleaning and care of Mates<\/span>
This mate already has an internal curing treatment so it is ready to be used.<\/span>
As it is a natural wood product, I recommend cleaning them with the least amount of water and not using a dishwasher or microwave.<\/span>
It is important that after using the mate remove the grass and wash it without rubbing it only with hot water and dry it with kitchen paper, to absorb moisture well<\/span>
Then dry it with a cloth very well and let it finish drying with the opening down. Leaving the weed moist in the mate without using it makes the wood taste ugly and ruin.<\/span>
These cares will extend the life of your Mate.<\/span>

Gourds have a porous, fleshy texture on the inside. Some mate gourds may look “clean” on the inside and some other not.<\/span>

These ones can show some rests of dried membranes and even seeds (this is not very common though) on the inside which you can easily remove with your fingers or a scraping tool if the hole of the gourd is too narrow.<\/span>

All our mate gourds will look “clean” on the inside so there\u00b4s very little you should do before use them.<\/span>

Fill your new gourd with almost boiling water (boiled water could crack the gourd), let the hot water sit for approximately 10 minutes. After this you may use a teaspoon and softly scrape the extra membrane out of the gourd under running water. If you have successfully removed the majority of the membrane you have completed the “curing” or cleaning process. If the inside of your new gourd looks pretty clean and there\u00b4s nothing to scrape out, just let the hot water rest and then rinse.<\/span>

What is yerba mate?<\/span>

Yerba Mate (pronounced YER-bah MAH-tay) is a type of holly plant native to Paraguay, Argentina, and Brazil. Drunk for thousands of years by the native Guaran\u00ed tribe of the Paran\u00e1, the plant has been revered for its ability to naturally stimulate the mind and body. With a significantly higher antioxidant capacity than of green tea, it has more healing power and nutrition than any other plant on the Earth. Mate contains a unique combination of caffeine (in coffee), theophylline (in tea), and theobromine (in chocolate) which is responsible for refreshing your mind, uplifting your mood, and remaining alert without any jitters or crashes. There\u2019s no other herb like yerba mate.<\/span>

Paraguay is known for its variety and richness in handcrafts, giving the country worldwide recognition in Crafts.<\/p>

Paraguayan Crafts have exquisite handmade crafts made by excellent artisans. They have learned this ancestral art and keep teaching it from generation to generation.<\/p>

\u00d1andut\u00ed is one of the most asked and known textures, is similar to a spider net. It is built over little circular, square, and rectangular modules, the artisan used to join the cotton fibber and make the piece. There are also flower designs inspired in local vegetation like mburucuj\u00e1 flower (also known as pasionaria). Another known work is Encaje J\u00fa, also made in cotton and a little\u00a0bit thicker.<\/p>

Ao Poi is the most traditional one, is very delicate and made also in white or vivid colors and embroidered with designs inspired in nature and geometry. The word Ao means fabric and Poi means slender.<\/p>
