Cuias are the traditional vessel used in the South of Brazil. Made of a natural calabash, these cups are all one-of-a-kind. Its curvy shape and natural blemishes make each cuia unique. Handmade by artisans in Brazil, this cuia comes with a built-in stand designed to last you a lifetime of drinking your favorite yerba mate or chimarrão, as it was designed for. The inside is smooth and dries quickly after each use so it can be ready for the next day.
It’s recommended you cure your gourd before use. (The size, shape, and color of your cuia may vary from the pictures shown as no two gourds are the same. And some may also feature minor blemishes giving it a more natural look and feel)
Dimensions (approx.): 4.0in. opening x 5.2in. height

Fiesta time mate drinker here. I have watched yerba mate lab for almost 5 whole years. Finally just bit the bullet and baught this. Ifmt was the best decision ever. I have woken up earlier, and had more energy than ever. Mate has been great.

Can’t say enough about this cuia. I actually got the one when they shipped with a metal stand. It’s so beautifully made and is perfect for when i drink chimarrão. (Also can’t wait to try La Palma in it soon!) It’s light and can last me all day at work. I highly recommend this if you’re looking for new cuia.
