Gourd - Fire Gourd: K $8.99 These maté vessels are decorated with fire designs to achieve a speckled sheen reminiscent of a jaguar's coat. It is necessary to cure your maté gourd before use. This process removes the bitter gourd taste from the vessel. Scrape the dry, flaky material form the inside of the gourd with a spoon. Fill the gourd with loose yerba maté. Pour in hot water. Let the gourd sit for 24 hours. Empty the gourd and scrape inside again. Rinse well. Fill the gourd with loose yerba maté a second time. Pour in hot water again. Allow the gourd to sit another 24 hours. Empty the gourd and give it a final scrape with a spoon. Rinse well. Your gourd is now ready for use! Remember to follow these tips to keep your gourd in good shape: Do not use soap when cleaning the gourd. A thorough rinse is sufficient. Do not run gourd through the dishwasher. Do not leave used tea leaves in the gourd for extended periods after use. Empty gourd after use, rinse well, and allow to dry on a windowsill. If you use additional herbs or flavors in your gourd, your gourd will acquire those flavors afterward. |

Gaucho Maté Gourd: K $15.02 Guayakí gourds and bombillas are artisan-crafted directly in the heart of South America. It is important to remember that a gourd is a gift from the earth. Every gourd is unique in its own way, and there are no two exactly alike. The Gaucho gourd is a beautiful, functional gourd that honors the free-spirited nature of the Gauchos (Argentine cowboys). Sharing a gourd is a ritual of hospitality and friendship. The Gaucho gourd comes with a 10-page color booklet that provides directions on curing, packing, and caring for your gourd, as well as the rich history of the gourd in South American culture. Bombilla not included. Roasted maté leaves are used throughout South America to make an infusion with stimulant effects. This plant provides a good alternative to tea or coffee, as it is not so upsetting to the system. There are also significant health benefits to its use. Yerba maté contains xanthine alkaloids (caffeine, theobromine, and theophylline), saponins, and 10% chlorogenic acid. Sterols resembling ergosterol and cholesterol are also present in yerba maté, and novel saponins, called matesaponins, have been discovered. Saponins are phytochemicals which have been shown to stimulate the immune system. Yerba maté leaf is also a rich source of vitamins, minerals, and 15 amino acids. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Maté for 'Mental and physical fatigue.' 'Average daily dosage: 3 g of drug; equivalent preparations. Mode of Administration: Comminuted herb for teas, herb powder for other galenical preparations for internal use.' 'Actions: Analeptic; Diuretic; Positively inotropic; Positively chronotropic; Glycogenolytic; Lipolytic.' An analeptic is a CNS stimulant. Chronotropic means: rate of muscle contraction. Inotropic means: force of muscle contraction. This has significance for people with heart problems. A positive effect on these two actions would mean an increase in the rate of contraction (positive chronotropic) and an increase in the force of contraction (positive inotropic). A glycogenolytic agent promotes the conversion of glycogen to burnable glucose. A lipolytic agent promotes the hydrolysis of fat. Maté is used for fatigue, nervous depression, rheumatic pains, psychogenic headache, and is specifically indicated for headache from fatigue. The Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia lists maté for psychogenic headache, fatigue, nervous depression, and rheumatic pains. In Germany, maté leaf is used as a component of prepared bladder and kidney teas, headache teas, and laxative teas. Maté dry extract is found as a component of instant teas and the alcoholic tincture is used in compound fluid preparations. In the United States, maté is used in monopreparations and as a component of central nervous system stimulant dietary supplements for mental and physical fatigue, aqueous infusion, alcoholic tincture, and aqueous dry extract. |

Yerba Mate Cert. Organic 1 lb: K $12.59 ORGANIC, RAINFOREST-GROWN, FAIR-TRADE Guayakí Yerba Mate is uniquely shade - grown in the rainforest to yield the highest quality mate with the most flavor, vitality and nutrition. A Cut Above Guayaki Yerba Mate has the typical ''Paraguayan'' cut. In Uruguay, you will find that they prefer their mate cut to have even more powder. In Argentina, you will find the preferred cut is void of both powder and stems. In our years of research drinking mate in tea bags, through a French press, in a gourd or guampa, we have found that the Paraguayan cut delivers the smoothest balance of flavor. Imparting the sweet nutty profile from the stem content balanced with the strength of the additional surface area from the powder, you have a full bodied mate with several characteristic layers of flavor. We like to consider the cut as a sort of ''whole herb'' approach, understanding that the stems add their own distinct function, and indeed carry an additional nutritional profile to the mate. When packing a gourd, gently shaking the mate with a tilt allows the stems to rise and the powder to drop. After inserting the bombilla, the gourd is tilted upright allowing the larger stems and leaf to surround the bombilla and thus creating an additional ''filter'' layer that assists in keeping out the fine sediment. No doubt, it does take practice. But isn’t that part of the joy and ceremony? We believe so. Without the powder, the mate needs additional time to impart its full flavor. With the powder, you get balanced flavor from the start with the leaves and stem assisting in carrying the balanced flavor over the duration of the mate ceremony. Enjoy! French Press: Place yerba mate in the French press. Add hot water and steep for 3-10 minutes. We recommend using 1-2 tbsp of traditional loose mate per cup. First, moisten the mate with cool water to protect the nutrients and flavor, then ADD HOT (NOT BOILING) WATER. Coffee Maker: Place yerba mate in filter basket, then brew. Espresso Maker: Yerba mate brews well in most espresso makers. Place yerba mate in a double espresso portafilter. Pull a long shot for a total of 4 oz. Great for making mate lattés. Mate Latte Recipe: Brew 8 oz. cup of Guayakí Yerba Mate or Java Mate. Add sweetener (sugar, honey, or maple syrup) to taste and 4 oz. of steamed milk of choice. Top off with milk foam. Makes a 12 oz. latté. Mate Gourd: Yerba maté is traditionally prepared in a gourd and shared among a circle of friends. Welcome the moments of community born of your own mate circle. |

Pre-Columbian Maté Gourd: K $22.54 Guayakí gourds and bombillas are artisan-crafted directly in the heart of South America. It is important to remember that a gourd is a gift from the earth. Every gourd is unique in its own way, and there are no two exactly alike. Two-headed snakes, dragons, frogs, bats, and birds are among the pre-Columbian cave pictographs carved in this gourd.
