Review on Efficient Yerba Mate Gourd Lid for Easy Pouring by Chris Dildine

I've been a fan of mate glasses and mate tea bags for a while, but I wanted to try a 100% authentic experience, so I ordered it. I've been using it for a few weeks now and I've found it to work exactly as advertised. Here are the highlights: The straw filters out even very finely ground mate and is still easy to drink. I had no problem getting pieces of mate in my mouth. The gourd is double-walled, which keeps it cool on the outside even when it contains boiling water. just pour more water over it. It's not 100% splash proof, but when fully inverted, no more than a drizzle comes out and the mat won't spill. This turns the 5 minute process of mopping up a puddle of water and a pile of mate in 10 seconds into mopping up a small amount of water if you knock it over. In my opinion, this feature alone makes this pumpkin more profitable than any other option. All parts are very easy to clean. The gourd and lid can be washed in the dishwasher or with a sponge. I clean the straw by running it under running water for a few seconds and rubbing the outside with a sponge. Overall I am very satisfied with this product.
