Mate in the Oriental Republic of Uruguay. If you visit us at any time we are willing to share

Mate is a drink, dear friends in another neighborhood, city or country.

Well, yes.

It is a liquid and enters the mouth. But it is a drink.

In this country nobody takes mate because you are thirsty.

It is rather a habit, like scratching.

Mate is the exact opposite of television.

It makes you talk if you're with someone, and makes you think when you're alone.

When someone comes to your house the first sentence is "hello" and the second "had a few mates?".

This happens in every home. In the rich and the of the poor.

Spend garrulous and gossipy women and men spend serious or immature.

Passes between a geriatric old and among adolescents as they study, rest and play.

That's all share the parents and children without arguing or throw anything at face.

The three major political parties, Blancos, Colorados and Frente fatten mate without asking.

In summer and winter.

It's the only thing that we look for victims and executioners.

The good and the very sons of bitches.

When you have a child, he began to mate when you ask.

Tibiecito grant it, with lots of sugar, and feel great.

Feel enormous pride when an extension of your blood starts to suck mate.

You will get the heart from the body.

Then they, over the years, they will choose whether to take bitter, sweet, hot, tereré, with orange peel, with weeds, with a squeeze of lemon.

When you meet someone for the first time you take a few mates.

People ask, when there is no trust: Sweet or bitter?

The other replied: 'As you take.

Computer keyboards have the letters Uruguay full of grass.

The grass is all there is always, in every house. Always.

With inflation, famine and military, democracy, and any of our eternal plagues and curses.

And if one day there is no grass, a neighbor has and gives you. The grass is not denied to anyone.

This is the only country where the decision to stop being a kid and start being a man takes a particular day.

No pants, circumcision, college or living away from parents.

Here we begin to be great the day we need to take a mate for the first time, alone.

It is no coincidence. Not just because. The day a boy puts the kettle on the fire and take your first mate with no one at home, at that moment, it is because he has found to have soul.

Or are you scared to death, or dead of love, or something, but it is another day.

None of us remember the day you first take a single mate.

But it must have been an important day for everyone.

On the inside there are revolutions.

The single mate is nothing more and nothing less than a demonstration of values ​​...

It is the solidarity of those mates bancar washed because the talk is good, the talk, no mate.!

Is respect for the time to talk and listen, you talk while the other takes and vice versa.

It is the sincerity to say: Enough, change the grass!

Fellowship time is done.

It is sensitivity to boiling water.

It is the love to ask, stupidly, is hot, no?

It is the modesty of one who fattens the best mate.

It is the generosity of giving to the end.

It is the hospitality of the invitation.

It is the righteousness of one by one.

It is the obligation of saying "thank you" at least once a day.

It is the ethical, honest and loyal unpretentious found to share.

Now you know, a mate is not just a mate ...

Heat your water???

I put the grass???

We enjoy walking the city slowly taking a bitter mate?

If you come to our city and we communicate, you are invited to a quiet morning of friendship and share our culture.

In the afternoon, the same bitter or sweet mate is accompanied with an unforgettable sunset over the Rio de la Plata.

HEALTH FRIEND.

Enjoy it.
