Ranchero Mate – The Spirit of the Countryside in Your Hands

The Ranchero Mate is more than just a mate: it’s a symbol of connection to the natural, the criollo, and the authentic. Made from solid algarrobo wood, it is hand-turned and hand-painted, making each piece a unique and unrepeatable object. Its texture, color, and shape evoke the countryside, the campfire, and the forest.

With the Southern Cross Engraved in Its Soul

The most distinctive detail is the Southern Cross formed with metal nails artisanally embedded—a reference to the sky that guides rural workers. This touch makes the Ranchero Mate a piece full of symbolism and strong Argentine identity.

Made for Those Who Love the Land and Tradition

The ergonomic turned design improves grip, while the algarrobo ensures an infusion that doesn’t alter the flavor of the yerba. This mate is ideal for daily use or as a gift with roots and presence.
