Yerba Mate Taragui Energy

Yerba Mate Taragui Energy is a loose leaf yerba with high caffeine content. This effect is created by harvesting the yerba leaves at the optimal time for the highest caffeine content. This also means the yerba is a lot stronger than other comparable yerba, both in strength and bitterness of taste. So if you are really looking for an energy burst this is your yerba! Caffeine contained in yerba mate is also known as matteine.

Brewing Your Yerba Mate

The tradition of drinking yerba mate is such an important part of the South American culture, specifically in Uruguay, Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil, although it is also enjoyed in other South American countries. Typically, it is drunk from a natural gourd (a hollowed out fruit) used as a cup, and then sipped through a metal straw known as a bombilla that has a filtered end to separate the infusion from the yerba leaves.

With any purchase of loose leaf yerba, full photo instructions will be provided on how to brew the perfect yerba mate. If you get it right, your yerba will always taste great, and last twice as long. Practice makes perfect!
