Descripción
The calabash gourd is traditionally used in South America for preparing and drinking mate. It is a type of squash that is dried, hollowed out then held over a flame, which turns it brown. This gourd has not been artificially coloured. This mate calabash gourd is handmade in Argentina. The shape and colour can differ from one gourd to another. This gourd can have a slight smoky smell, which will fade away with time.
