Yerba Maté

Sweet and fresh aroma with green notes, with a smooth and delicate flavor.

Our organic yerba maté is organically grown, fair trade certified by IMO, and produces a light green beverage, with a refreshingly bold flavor.

Add 1 tablespoon of tea to 8 oz of very hot but not boiling water and steep for 5-8 minutes or until desired strength is reached.

The first rule of brewing traditional maté is to never pour boiling or very hot water over dry leaves, this will cause the tannins to extract too quickly resulting in a bitter tasting tea. The ideal temperature of the water should be 160-180 degrees Fahrenheit. Maté brews more slowly than conventional tea or coffee which extends its flavor, the same tea leaves can be used many times and with each addition of water the taste will be slightly different.

Organic yerba maté (contains caffine).
