Fire Gourd - Handmade Yerba Mate Tea Vessel

Waking up to a warm maté gourd is one of the great pleasures of Argentine life. The natural fit of the vessel in your palm complements the energizing infusion within.

Hand-crafted by Argentine artisans. We pay prices above the norm in order to support decent standards of living for these talented artisans, while making an effort to keep our prices affordable to you.

Gourds naturally vary in size, look and shape, but most are the size of a medium to large apple.

These mate vessels are ideal for enjoying yerba mate tea traditional-style with a bombilla (also available from Zebra Organics).

Remember, it is necessary to cure your maté gourd before use. This process removes the bitter gourd taste from the vessel.
