How much do Yerba Mate vessels cost?
It is hard to say how much such a matero costs, because it really depends on what the Yerba Mate vessel is made of, its capacity and its appearance. You can buy one for around 15 PLN, but you can also find a far better, top-shelf one whose price will be several times higher. A ceramic vessel is the cheapest option and wins the hearts of Mate beginners. If you are a seasoned drinker, however, go for the most expensive but also the highest-quality vessel made from the holy Palo Santo wood.
If you drink this infusion and love savouring its taste every day, it is worth choosing a mate vessel that proves reliable and durable, and one that helps bring out the full aroma of the prepared infusion.
A wide choice of Yerba Mate vessels
How do you choose the best from dozens of different options? A Yerba vessel has to be strong, solid, durable, easy to keep clean and good-looking. Which one you choose is up to you. For some, a ceramic vessel will be ideal; for others, a wooden one. It really is a matter of taste and preference. It is worth remembering that a ceramic vessel does not add the extra flavour notes that gourd or wooden vessels provide.
Drinking Yerba Mate – choose the right Matero
If we are to enjoy drinking Yerba Mate, which is exceptional in every respect, a matero is definitely a must, and it is worth buying in a starter set together with a particular type of bombilla and dried leaf. We are convinced that this way everyone will see for themselves how calming and relaxing brewing Yerba Mate can be when it is served the right way and in a suitable vessel. By caring for this ritual and focusing on such important details, drinking Yerba Mate can become one of the most enjoyable moments of every day. So we start by choosing the vessel, pick a specific type of mate and... savour its extraordinary taste!
Another factor that determines which yerba mate vessel will work best is its volume. For beginners and people who drink the infusion alone, the optimal choice is a vessel with a capacity of 150 to 250 ml. It lets you keep the right proportions of dried leaf to water without using a large amount of product. Larger models, over 300 ml, are ideal for long sessions or for drinking together with friends, which is popular in South American countries. At YMT24 we offer a wide range of sizes, so you can precisely match the vessel size to how much leaf you use and how you drink your yerba. When deciding which yerba mate vessel will join your collection, it is worth thinking about daily care and the durability of the accessories. Vessels made of stainless steel and ceramic are extremely practical, as they can be washed with standard detergents and even in the dishwasher, which prevents mould. Natural models, such as those made of gourd or wood, require careful drying after each use and should not be left with damp leaf overnight. If you value mobility and often drink yerba while travelling or at the office, vessels with smooth surfaces will be a perfect fit, ensuring hygiene and ease of use whatever the conditions. When considering which yerba mate vessel will be best, it is worth looking at its shape, especially the narrowing known as the rim or mouth. Hourglass-shaped vessels or those with a clearly defined collar make it easier to prepare the so-called slope, i.e. resting the dried leaf against one of the walls. This design keeps the dust from clogging the bombilla, and the infusion retains its flavour over many refills. The choice of which yerba mate vessel to buy should also depend on the water temperature you intend to use. If you plan to drink mainly terere, i.e. cold yerba with ice and fruit, the ideal solution is a guampa made of cattle horn or a vessel with a wide mouth. The large diameter of the top of the matero lets you easily add ice cubes and pieces of citrus, which is key on hot days. Double-walled stainless steel accessories insulate the cold perfectly, preventing the refreshing drink from warming up quickly. For many lovers of Paraguayan holly, the key question when choosing a yerba mate vessel is its unique look and design. Hand-decorated gourds with alpaca fittings or carved Palo Santo wooden vessels are not just tools but small works of art that delight the eye in everyday use. By choosing a matero with a unique design, you emphasise your individual style and make every moment with the infusion special. In our shop we make sure our vessels combine practicality with the highest quality of workmanship, becoming a decoration for your kitchen or desk. The choice of a yerba mate vessel (matero) depends above all on the material, the capacity and whether we want to avoid curing. At the YMT24 shop you will find vessels made of gourd, wood, ceramic, glass and stainless steel. The right matero makes it easier to arrange the dried leaf, keep the temperature and drink comfortably through a bombilla. The vessels are available online, usually shipped within 24 h. To start with, the simplest choice is ceramic or steel, as they need no preparation and are easy to maintain. People who value tradition often reach for gourd or wood, which enrich the taste of the infusion.Show more
