Taragui is one of the key brands of the Argentinian powerhouse yerba producer Las Marias which has been producing yerba mate since 1924.
The tradition of drinking yerba mate is such an important part of the South American culture. This is specifically true in Uruguay, Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil as well as other South American countries. Yerba mate is drunk from a natural gourd (a hollowed out fruit) used as a cup. It is then sipped through a metal straw known as a bombilla which has a filtered end to separate the infusion from the yerba leaves. This happens while groups of friends and family get together to chat, and enjoy mate together. In recent times, teabags have become very popular.
Rainforest Alliance Certified
Teabags may not give the same experience as drinking traditionally but they are very convenient. The quality of taste is the same and its a practical way of enjoying yerba mate, which was originally prepared with loose yerba leaves. Made with 100% pure yerba mate leaf they have an intense and rich flavor. In 1965 Establecimiento Las Marías facilitated its preparation and consumption by developing yerba mate in bags. Its elaboration is exactly the same as that of yerba mate and the only difference is in the milling. The yerba mate leaves are processed in such a way to eliminate the stems and leaf dust. This special selection results in a crystalline mate of excellent quality and only Rainforest Alliance Certified ™ yerba is used.
