Calabash (Cuja, Calebasse, Mate drinking vessel) with wickerwork-leather look red
The calebasse is a mate drinking vessel that is used to prepare mate tea. It is a purely vegetable product and is made from dried bottle gourds. As this is a natural material, there may be variations in colour and size. These therefore make each calabash unique. A special metal straw, the so-called bombilla or bombilha, is used to drink the mate tea. The preparation of mate tea in the calabash, also called cuja, is celebrated in South America in the traditional way.

Instructions for use
A calabash is a vegetable product, a small gourd. The fibre residues are easy to remove with a "bombilla" (drinking tube). The bombilla is specially designed and rounded to avoid injury to the rind of the calabash. In Mate countries, it is traditional for everyone to prepare their own calabash.
Then the following recipe is to be carried out:
1. fill the calabash about one third full with mate tea.
2. Pour boiling water over it
3. leave to stand for a day
4. Tip out
5. Repeat the procedure twice After three days your calabash is ready for use. The flavours of the tea have penetrated the inner winds through the repeated procedure and will now push back the harsher taste of the gourd skin. This leaves the aroma of the mate tea unadulterated.
