Tradicional Yerba Mate

The Best Yerba Mate for your Gourd and Bombilla Air-dried – Organically Grown After years of searching, we’ve partnered with an organic-certified 3rd generation family farm to produce our Tradicional style gourd blend yerba mate.  They draw on centuries of tradition but most importantly use an innovative smoke-free indirect heating method.  This results in a yerba mate that is air-dried to perfection and free of contaminants.   Aged for Superior Taste Authentic Gourd Experience After harvest, we age our yerba mate for a minimum of one year in a climate-controlled warehouse.  This process helps to break down chlorophyll and results in a smoother, more zesty taste with a woody finish.  Other yerba mate producers routinely skip this step or use a forced aging process resulting in an inferior and vegetal tasting yerba.  This may be why your gourd of Guayaki traditional, or Taragui yerba mate has a distinctly more vegetal finish.   Expertly Blended Authentic Experience We blend our yerba with the perfect ratio of leaf, stem and powder to create a perfect balance of flavor and nutrition. First, the leaves offer vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and caffeine.  Second, the stems add an extra layer of filtration, herbal sweetness and higher theobromine content. Thirdly, powder enhances the overall drinking experience by providing a smoother mouth feel and increasing aroma. Ancient Ritual Yerba Montana offers a powerful and authentic experience that pays homage to the ancient ritual of the Guarani people. This tribe believed it to be a “drink of the gods” due to its ability to provide sustained energy from its caffeine and nutritional content. Consume Consciously with our Bio-degradable bags Our packaging is fully compostable and we use biodegradable soy-based inks. After use, you can shred your empty bag and mix it into your compost along with your spent yerba mate to create nutrient-rich soil or fertilizer.
