A mate that tells a story. Crafted from recycled yerba and finished by hand, the Changüi Grandote brings together tradition, sustainability, and everyday ritual in one unique piece. The Changüi Grandote Mate Gourd is more than a mate—it’s a reflection of Argentina’s culture, reimagined through sustainable design. Handcrafted in Mar del Plata, each piece carries the character of artisanal work and the purpose of conscious production. Its exterior is made from recycled yerba mate, combined with eco-friendly bio-resin and reforested wood, giving new life to materials that would otherwise go to waste. The result is a textured, natural finish where no two pieces are exactly alike. Inside, a double-wall stainless steel 304 interior provides a practical, modern experience. It helps maintain the temperature of your mate or tereré while ensuring a clean, neutral taste. Unlike traditional gourds, it requires no curing—just rinse and it’s ready to use. Designed for daily use, the Grandote offers a comfortable grip, a balanced capacity, and the versatility to move with you—from home to work, or wherever your routine takes you. For those far from Argentina, it’s a meaningful connection to the ritual. For others, it’s a thoughtful way to experience mate with a sustainable perspective.
