New York and Buenos Aires will always be special places for Circle of Drink. It’s between both eponymos cities that we founded our mate community back in 2009. Starting with a visit to Buenos Aires in 2009 which lead to a three year move, then back to New York to formally start the company after years of researching and learning all about yerba mate. Learn more about this ongoing journey from our book Mateology. Here’s a guide for those of you interested in visiting Buenos Aires. And here’re a few articles of yerba mate circles on New York City: Yerba Mate in NYC with new & old friends and Yerba Mate NYC: The Social Catalyst.  All orders made in New York receive free shipping!
