Description
These beautiful handmade ceramic cuias are made by Karbas Ceramika in Poland (Instagram: karbas.ceramika)
They all vary slightly, but are made to hold around 300ml.
Currently available in four different designs, these ceramic cuias allow the Mate drinker to sip away in style (cuia is the Brazilian word for a Mate gourd).
Ceramic cuias are a great choice for those looking for something a little easier to maintain than a traditional calabaza cuia, or for those wanting a more neutral-tasting cuia. They are even dishwasher safe.
Unlike Argentinian gourds, these cuias have the wide opening typical of the Brazilian style. This allows for a larger pile of fresh Mate to sit on top and means the cuia can be refilled more times before the Mate loses its flavour. A large ceramic cuia could well last you most of the day!
Recommended bombilla pairing:
Any of our range of Bombas will work with these, although the larger sizes would perhaps be too long.
