Starter Kit - Mate Claro
$75.00

This kit includes Daniel’s Mate Claro — a Palo Santo gourd fully wrapped in aluminum, giving it its signature bright, “claro” appearance. Inside sits sustainably sourced Palo Santo from Argentina’s Chaco region; outside, a seamless aluminum shell crafted and fitted by hand in Buenos Aires, strengthened by Daniel’s 34 years of quiet expertise.

Paired with an alpaca bombilla and 250g of our Pure Leaf™ yerba mate, it offers a clean, elegant introduction to the ritual with added durability for everyday use.

Frequently asked questions
How to cure my mate?
  1. Rinse with warm water.
  2. Oil lightly inside and out, let sit 1 hour, wipe off excess.
  3. Cure with used yerba + warm water for 12 hours.
How do I care for my mate daily?

Empty, rinse with warm water (no soap), and let dry.

The wood will darken naturally — that’s part of its beauty.
How do I clean my bombilla?

Rinse after each use with warm water.

For a deeper clean, boil it in water with a little baking soda for a few minutes, then rinse and dry.
How do I brew the traditional way?

Fill the mate ¾ full with Pure Leaf, turn it upside down and shake to move the small particles to the top. Tilt the mate to one side to create a “watering hole,” insert your bombilla, and add warm (not boiling) water. Sip and refill.
How is it different from other yerba mate?

Most yerba mate is smoke-dried and aged. Pure Leaf is unsmoked and unaged — bright, clean, and naturally smooth.
Does it have caffeine?

Yes — about the same as green tea, but balanced by theobromine for calm energy.
Can I reuse the leaves?

Yes! Refill with warm water until the flavor fades—usually around 15 refills per serving.
