## Description

We source our Argentinian Yerba Mate from an organic farm in Argentina that has been certified organic since 1993. This grade of Mate is especially made for us to contain only leaves. Often, Mate can be found in the marketplace containing both leaves and stems of the plant.Yerba Mate (Ilex paraguariensis) is an evergreen plant of the holly family (Aquifoliaceae). The plant can reach heights of 10-12 meters, but is generally pruned at about 4-6 meters. Although the plant does produce small flowers and fruit, only the distinct oval-shaped leaves and stems are plucked for processing.

Review: What a pleasant departure from Brazilian Maté! - So I know there's the thing called terroir; where the region a crop is grown effects its flavor, aroma, and other characteristics. I know this to be true of coffee and wine, most notably, but I hadn't really thought much about regional variations in yerba maté. While Brazilian maté has a pronounced grassy, dry flavor, its Argentinian cousin is sweeter/less bitter with a smooth and silky mouth feel. The aroma is clean and almost floral, which is very pleasant and not an overpowering characteristic. It has just the right amount of caffeine, being stimulating and uplifting without the jitteriness that coffee provides with its other stimulants and alkaloids (i.e. theobromine). Don't get me wrong, I love coffee, but if you need something a little less on the rocket fuel end of stimulants, this maté is a great alternative. You can steep it 3-4 times and still get a good cup, so it's an even better value than the packaging implies. I'm putting this on my Subscribe and Save list without a doubt!
Review: Smooth tasting - Great flavor, very smooth especially the second refill of hot water in the gourd. Not as bitter as many other brands (keep in mind the first brew is always a little stronger than the second or third). Mostly clean chopped leaves no where near the amount of stems and dust you find in some brands. The can is handy for traveling because it is small and has an inside lid that helps keep the mate fresh and prevent spills. The only downside is if you pack a traditional amount into your gourd you only get about 5 servings from the can. Most of the time I simply use three heaping tablespoons and can get about three servings before I have to repack and start over.
