Yerba Mate is rich in caffeine, it was consumed before coffee arrived in Latin America.

It brews clear and yellowish, with a very pleasant particularly refreshing taste.

Very vegetal, slightly earthy (less than the pu erh) a little bitter but without astringency.

It now brewed like tea but it is interesting to consume it in the traditional way- in a calabash and a straw- where the taste will be more intense.
