About

Yerba Mate (Guayakí) refers to a packaged caffeinated drink by the company Guayakí, named after a plant of the same name. Yerba Mate is traditionally consumed in central and southern regions of South America, primarily in Paraguay, although it is now available worldwide in the form of energy drinks and loose leaf. Guayakí's Yerba Mate is often connected to the Art Hoe Wojak and California culture and enjoys a following comparable to that of Red Bull or Monster Energy.

History

Guayakí is an organic beverage company specializing in bottling and selling yerba mate products. The company is based in Sebastopol, California, and was founded in 1996 by CalPoly San Luis Obispo graduates Alex Pryor and David Karr.

Guayakí Yerba Mate has gathered a cult following over the past decade as an organic and purportedly healthy alternative to processed energy drinks like Red Bull and Monster Energy. Guayakí Yerba Mate is primarily distributed through organic and health-oriented stores like Whole Foods. [1]

Notable Memes

Art Hoe Wojak / Yerba Mate Wojak

A popular meme that uses the imagery of a Guayakí Yerba Mate can is the wojak colloquially known as the "Art Hoe Wojak." The drawing is meant to parody a typical liberal arts student, featuring a choker, orange hair, glasses and a septum piercing.

The earliest known use of the wojak were two 4chan posts from October 10, 2018, posted to /mu/[7] and /pol/[6].

I hate how "health food" companies have to drive up the price of traditional consumables with their hippy-dippy "superfood" branding. Avocados and kombucha were fairly common in their home countries, with avocados being fairly cheap in México until gringos drove up the price. It sucks that yerba mate and kombucha have that snooty Liberal image along with high prices, as I actually like their taste and wish I could drink them without feeling self-conscious about it.
