Opis produktu

Gourd (cuia) Lisa Media 185-230 ml

A traditional cup made from a gourd fruit, with a relatively simple but charming look and medium capacity, intended for Brazilian chimarrao. The cuia is made from a gourd, but its shape differs from the classic Argentinian calabaza, as it comes from a different part of the plant, closer to the stem - hence its distinctive hourglass shape. Thanks to its size, it is an ideal choice for those who want to fully enjoy the charms and long-lasting nature of chimarrao throughout the day.

Brazilians have loved Chimarrao since time immemorial, and these cups were used even before the European conquistadors arrived in South America. They remain very popular today, and many Brazilians cannot imagine life without their cuia and their favourite finely ground mate, chimarrao.

The Lisa Media gourd (cuia) is a simple, medium-sized natural cup made from a gourd fruit, with a decorated metal base glued on that keeps the cuia stable and harder to knock over. There are also versions in which the cuia consists of two parts: the cup and a stand. This one is a single-piece version.

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

Important note on use: after each day of use, the cuia needs time to dry - ideally 24 hours to get rid of all moisture. If you forget about this, mould can appear in the cup quite quickly and it will no longer be usable. Dry the cup in its normal position - do not turn it upside down and do not put it away in places without air circulation (e.g. cupboards).

As this is a natural product, each piece differs slightly in shape, shade and capacity. There may be slight discolouration inside the cup and scratches on the outside.
