OUR STORY
My earliest memory of mate takes me back to my grandmother in Chile. She would prepare it for me on special occasions, gently adapting the tradition for a child, blending it with native herbs, or even milk and honey to soften its strength.
Among the Mapuche people, mate is more than a drink, it is a ritual passed from generation to generation. Just as my grandmother shared it with me, this tradition became part of who I am.
Taste has a memory of its own. Over time, that memory turned into a deep connection with Ilex paraguariensis, the sacred plant of the Guaraní people.
Long before the arrival of the conquistadores, the Guaraní discovered yerba mate and called it “ca’a”, meaning plant, herb, or jungle. They believed it to be a gift from the gods, a source of energy, connection, and life.
Inspired by this heritage, I set out to reinterpret mate for today, without losing its essence. The result is a refreshing, cold expression of this ancient ritual, crafted to be shared, experienced, and remembered.
Once you taste it, it stays with you.
