Jaz was Excellent! - Amazing experience. I loved learning about the history and cultural traditions of Mate all while painting my own mate cup and enjoying delicious pastries. The location was fantastic as well. The house was architecturally beautiful and the colorful mosaic tiles got the creative vibe started. Jaz was an excellent host and knowledgeable about everything mate and art. Her natural artistic ability inspired my own painting. Afterwards a short walk into the heart of San Telmo offered a nice glass of Argentinian wine and good people watching while taking in this beautiful city and people. All in all a five star experience with Jaz!

Recomendado 100%!!! Maravillosa Experiencia! - Somos de Puerto Rico que viajamos a Argentina para un reencuentro familiar y decidimos vivir la experiencia de tomar mate. Encontramos esta actividad maravillosa y pudimos reservarla rápidamente. La anfitriona fue muy amable, nos explicó la historia del mate, lo probamos y también pintamos nuestro propio mate. Fue una experiencia única y enriquecedora que recomendamos al 100%.
We are from Puerto Rico who traveled to Argentina for a family reunion and decided to experience mate. We found this amazing activity and were able to book it quickly. The host was very kind, explained the history of mate, let us try it, and guided us in painting our own mate cup. It was a unique and enriching experience that we highly recommend.

Amazing and unique way to experience a huge part of the culture! - Amazing experience! Lots of information about mate and the area in general! A wonderful way to experience mate, especially because it’s not something you find in restaurants. Would recommend to anyone coming to Argentina!

Highly recommend - We had a little obstacle to start the session. The building where we were supposed to have the session has a power outage. Jaz decided to do a special picnic at Lago de Palermo instead. It turned out to be surprisingly fun. Beautiful weather, I loved sipping my mate outdoors in nature , and let my creativity flows. Jaz brought some tasty treats and lots of art supplies. I highly recommend this to those who enjoy art, and mingle with locals over mate.

Was super fun - We had a creative morning. The course offers you a mate cup and a bomilla. You can create the cup how you want. She has some prepared desings for those who want and also helps if you dont know what to do exactly. We ate breakfast together wich was very good. And in the end she gave us some more time to finish our work because we didn't do it in time. Very recommend the workshop it was a chill vibe and we had fun.

Definitely recommend! - We had a great experience drinking mate and painting with Jazmin. She was very kind, informative, and engaging. She explained us about the origins of mate and the proper practice and then we had a lovely time painting our mate. She helped us decide our design for the cup, and had some good recommendations. The Argentinian snacks were delicious and we had an all-round great experience!! Definitely would recommend.

Highly Recommended!! - Fun and original cultural experience. There is a tour of the history of mate and also a tasting, mentioning and telling about emblematic places of the city and typical aspects, as well as the flora and fauna. The meeting ends with painting.
Very fun and original!

The best, eat, paint and drink mate! - I loved painting my own matte and taking it with me! My friends and I had a lot of fun and Jazmín taught us, in addition to painting, how to drink mate! When I return to Buenos Aires I want to repeat!
