Part of the everyday
Made with yerba mate, this infusion is woven into everyday life in Uruguay and across neighbouring countries. The cup and thermos often travel together, bringing a familiar ritual into streets, parks and the waterfront.
Let the conversation lead
There is more to a custom than its equipment. If someone invites you to share a mate, follow their lead and ask how they like to prepare it. Curiosity and a little time can be a good way into a conversation.
