MateLeaks - Mate - Don't Call it Tea

To really start to understand mate, you have to drink it more than hundred times. Mate, an indigenous ritual, transformed from a regional traditional drink in South America to a soft drink in Europe. MateLeaks explodes the myth of the bottle for Mate fans and takes the reader back to the roots where the mate is harvested and artisanality produced.

About the author

Fabricio do Canto was born in Brazil and grew up with the mate culture. Following a successful career at Beiersdorf AG including the patenting of several products, Fabrício moved to India where he met Krithika, an Indian photojournalist who had grown up in the US. Together the two of them travelled the globe for nearly a decade, and carried out several art projects.
They are enthusiastic mate drinkers and always ready to share their knowledge with those interested. They harvested their first Mate in 2009 and since then have performed the Mate myth as a theater play in different countries and held lectures and workshops on mate and economy hacking.
After nearly a decade of traveling, passing many a cuia around and sharing mate with friends all over the world, they finally decided to dedicate their lives towards their passion and thus was born Meta Mate in July 2011.
