Traditional Yerba Mate Gourd

In South America they are often referred to as calabash mate gourds (mate de calabaza). They are made from dried and hollowed squash plants and are impervious to leaking. These gourds may be light, but trust us when we tell you that they are surprisingly strong and durable—we know some mate drinkers who’ve had the same calabash mate gourd for over 10 years.

All of our Jungle Cup Mate Gourds have been designed by hand in Argentina by our own Circle of Drink Master Artisan. We pride ourselves as not only the providers of amazing organic yerba mate and mate gourds, but as true artists who care about the quality of our work and craft. No compromises are made and we guarantee satisfaction.

Each gourd is slightly different in shape, size, and design, so your gourd will truly be one of a kind. Using natural plant-based dyes, each mate cup is elegantly painted with tribal patterns. With the right care, this gourd can last you several years or a lifetime.
