Mate has deep historical roots among the indigenous Guaraní people, who consumed it for its stimulating effects and medicinal properties long before European colonization. Jesuit missionaries later documented its use and cultivation, contributing to its spread throughout the region. Rei do Mate, as a modern brand, builds upon this rich tradition by offering various flavored Mate teas.

Mate is more than just a beverage; it's a social ritual deeply ingrained in the culture of Southern South America. Sharing Mate from a single gourd, passed from person to person, symbolizes friendship, hospitality, and connection.
Social Bonding
Sharing Mate is a communal act, fostering conversation and strengthening relationships. The cebador (the person who prepares and serves the Mate) plays a central role in the ritual.
Hospitality
Offering Mate to guests is a sign of welcome and friendship. Refusing a Mate is generally considered impolite, unless you politely explain that you cannot take it due to certain limitations.
Everyday Ritual
Mate is consumed throughout the day, from morning until evening, and is often part of daily routines and social gatherings. It provides a sustained energy boost, contributing to its popularity.

Mate tea, in its natural form, possesses an earthy, slightly bitter taste. Rei do Mate enhances this base flavor with various additions, creating a diverse range of flavor profiles.
Natural Mate offers the pure, unadulterated taste of yerba mate leaves. Lemon Mate adds a refreshing citrusy note, balancing the bitterness with a zesty tang. Other potential flavors include toasted Mate (adding a smoky nuance), or blends incorporating herbs and spices for a more complex and aromatic experience. Specific flavors offered by Rei do Mate may vary.

Preparation is Key
The correct water temperature is crucial (around 70-80°C or 160-175°F). Overheating the water will result in a bitter taste. Also, correctly filling the gourd and placing the bombilla are important for proper infusion and filtration.
Respect the Order
As a guest, wait for the cebador to offer you the Mate. Accept it graciously and drink the entire gourd before returning it for refilling.
No Stirring!
Avoid stirring the Mate with the bombilla (metal straw), as this can clog it and disrupt the brewing process.
