Authentic Argentine Heritage:** Embrace the true spirit of South America. Playadito originates from the heart of Argentina's prime mate-growing region and has been dedicated to the craft for over 90 years.
Complete Starter Set:** This set includes the traditional gourd cup and a matching bombilla (filtered straw), giving you the essential tools to begin your Yerba Mate journey right away.
Designed for Optimal Flavor:** The classic gourd shape is crafted to concentrate the rich aromas and nuanced flavors of the mate leaves, enhancing every sip.
Smooth, Filtered Sipping:** The included bombilla is designed to effectively separate the tea leaves from the water, ensuring a smooth, pleasant, and leaf-free drinking experience.
How to Use
Enjoying traditional Yerba Mate is a simple and rewarding ritual.
1. Fill the gourd about one-half to two-thirds full with your favorite Yerba Mate leaves.
2. Cover the opening with your palm, turn the gourd on its side, and shake gently. This helps move the finer particles to the top.
3. Tilt the gourd back, creating a slope of leaves on one side. Add a splash of cool or lukewarm water to the empty side to moisten the leaves.
4. Insert the bombilla straw into the moistened area, resting it against the gourd's inner wall.
5. Gently pour hot (not boiling, approx. 170°F / 77°C) water into the empty space.
6. Sip through the bombilla, refilling the gourd with hot water for multiple infusions.
Care & Safety
To preserve the quality of your gourd, rinse it with warm water after each use. Do not use soap, as it can be absorbed by the material and affect the taste of your mate. Allow the gourd to air dry completely in an upright position between uses to ensure its longevity.
