Roasted Yerba-Maté

Roasted Yerba-Maté is a rich, full-bodied and smooth brew. Flavours of coffee and toast make it deeply satisfying and quite different to conventional teas.

Prepared from the evergreen shrub, Ilex paraguariensis, Yerba Maté is the traditional drink throughout Latin America. When roasted, it’s toasty, slightly creamy – reminiscent of Japanese Hōjicha. Both green and roasted maté contain caffeine. We do not have a measured caffeine comparison for these products.

A lovely option when you want to try something a little different.

FAQs

Does it contain caffeine? Yes. Maté naturally contains caffeine. The amount in your cup depends on the leaf and how you prepare it; we do not have a measured amount for this product.

Can I drink it with milk? Generally best without milk — but if you enjoy creamy brews, try a small splash.

How should I store it? Keep it sealed, cool and dry — away from heat, sunlight and strong aromas.
