About the Gaucho

Hi, I’m the Gaucho, well, I won’t lie, technically, I’m a gringo convert to gauchoism (gauchoism: noun - the Free thinking, nomadic, yerba-mate-drinking, freedom loving attitude toward life).

I started drinking yerba mate about 5 years ago and still drink on almost a daily basis, not because I have to but because it’s like a form of meditation. It’s a great chance to wind down, relax and share your experiences with friends and family. My 2 year old loves the stuff too, of course she really is half gaucha (her mother’s from Uruguay).

Anyway I’m posting this blog on common questions I’ve been asked over the years regarding yerba mate. You may also be subject to some of my own philosophies, life views and random rantings but I think you’ll find the experience education if not somewhat entertaining.

Chau for Now.
