What you can expect

  • We are Vale and Juli, creators of Carpincha, a proposal that seeks to share a little piece of our customs and rituals. We invite you to participate in a poetic experience about mate, where we will tell you about the history and secrets of this tradition, which is much more than an infusion, a symbol of our national identity. We will talk about the cultivation, the origin and the different types of yerba mate.
    And just as when someone comes to your house the first sentence is 'Hello' and the second 'some mates', we are going to prepare some good matienzos accompanied by delicious things, where you will be able to taste different types of yerba mate and some tips to make the best mates.
    What does it include?
    Masterclass + yerba tasting + sweet snacks to accompany the mateada.
