1592 - The native indigenous tribes drank the yerba maté beverage for 1000s of years with a small cane (Bombilla or Bom-bee-u) placed inside a small hollow gourd which they used as a cup. Soon this beverage spread out, so quickly that it gained reputation as a stimulant, an aphrodisiac and even a drug among the Spaniards. Jesuit missionaries were the first to start cultivating yerba maté among the new Europeans.
