Hi! Argentinian here, so of course, I drink mate regularly đŸ˜‚.

I love it mainly because it's a slow-paced drink. I prepare it early in the morning and can keep drinking for a few hours (changing the yerba every now and then). I'm currently trying a yerba brand called Playadito because I was in the mood for something smoother.

I think it's really cool that you tried Mate and liked it. It's wild for me to see all this Mate equipment on this site đŸ˜‚

Thats awesome, is that a palo santo gourd that I spy there? such a better flavour than my stainless steel one but because im lazy I kept forgetting to clean it out haha, I have tried Playadito before in a smaller quantity and loved it, I also love Pajarito from Paraguay thats what I started off with but Argentinian Yerba is my favourite so far.

Just a regular wood mate I bought in the shop around the corner of my apartment. I should replace it already but I keep forgetting.

I haven't tried Pajarito, I don't know if they have it here, but I'll keep an eye out for it!
