Mate Gourd Cup – Calabash

Description

Mate gourd cup – traditional vessel for mate

The calabash mate cup is the traditional vessel used for drinking mate. Made from natural gourd, it offers an authentic way to enjoy mate and adds a distinctive element to your tea setup. With a diameter of approx. 4.5 cm at the top, a body diameter of 12 cm and a height of 10.5 cm, it provides enough space for a generous serving.

Unique characteristics

The natural gourd material helps retain heat, keeping your mate warm for longer. It also contributes to a more intense and rounded flavour. The lightweight structure and organic shape make it comfortable to hold and use.

Tradition meets simple design

This mate cup combines traditional use with a natural look. It fits well in both rustic and modern settings and adds character to any tea moment. It is especially suitable for preparing green mate, while roasted mate is often prepared in regular cups.

Care instructions

Rinse the calabash thoroughly after each use and let it air dry. Avoid detergents or strong cleaning agents, as they can affect the natural material. A gentle wipe with a damp cloth is sufficient.

A shared experience

Drinking mate is often enjoyed together. This cup is a simple way to be part of that tradition and share the experience with others.
