Opis produktu

Gourd (cuia) Lisa Larga 235-250 ml

A traditional vessel made from a gourd fruit with a relatively simple yet charming look and a large capacity, intended for Brazilian chimarrao. Cuia is made from a gourd, but its shape differs from the classic Argentinian calabaza because it comes from a different part of the plant, closer to the stem - hence its distinctive hourglass-like shape. Thanks to its size, it is an ideal choice for anyone who wants to make full use of the charm and yield of chimarrao throughout the day.

Brazilians have loved chimarrao for ages, and these vessels were already in use before the European conquistadors arrived in South America. They are still very popular today, and many Brazilians cannot imagine life without their own gourd and their favourite finely ground mate, chimarrao. Made by the Brazilian brand Arte Couro (Taura), which mainly produces chimarrao accessories.

Gourd (cuia) Lisa Larga is a simple, medium-sized natural vessel made from a gourd fruit with a glued-on decorated metal foot that keeps the cuia stable and harder to knock over. Some versions of the cuia consist of two parts: the vessel and a stand. This one is a one-piece version.

Before first use, we recommend pouring hot water into the gourd and leaving it for 1-2 h or - the more recommended option - preparing an aromatic mixture: mate + any herbs (mint, lemongrass, etc.), which you put into the gourd, cover with boiling water and, as before, leave in the gourd for 1-2 h. After this time, empty the gourd, rinse out the remaining mate thoroughly, then wipe the inside with a paper towel and leave it to dry for 1 day.

An important note on use: after each day of use, the cuia needs time to dry - ideally 24 hours, so that all the moisture is gone. If you forget about this, mould can appear in the gourd quite quickly and it will no longer be fit for use. Dry the gourd standing upright - do not turn it upside down and do not keep it in places without air circulation (e.g. in cupboards).

As it is a natural product, each piece differs slightly in shape, shade and capacity. It may have slight discolouration inside and scratches on the outside.
