A Cut Above
Guayaki Yerba Mate has the typical “Paraguayan” cut. In Uruguay, you will find that they prefer their mate cut to have even more powder. In Argentina, you will find the preferred cut is void of both powder and stems. In our years of research drinking mate in tea bags, through a French press, in a gourd or guampa, we have found that the Paraguayan cut delivers the smoothest balance of flavor.

Imparting the sweet nutty profile from the stem content balanced with the strength of the additional surface area from the powder, you have a full bodied mate with several characteristic layers of flavor. We like to consider the cut as a sort of “whole herb” approach, understanding that the stems add their own distinct function, and indeed carry an additional nutritional profile to the mate.

When packing a gourd, gently shaking the mate with a tilt allows the stems to rise, and the powder to drop. After inserting the bombilla, the gourd is tilted upright allowing the larger stems and leaf to surround the bombilla, and thus creating an additional “filter” layer that assists in keeping out the fine sediment. Without the powder, the mate needs additional time to impart its full flavor. With the powder, you get balanced flavor from the start, with the leaves and stem assisting in carrying the balanced flavor throughout the duration of the mate drinking session.

The smoothest Mate I've ever tried

By: Wayne Hall of Tucson

The San Mateo Air Dried Mate is the smoothest Mate I've ever tried. It's worth stocking up on. I love to mix in a little chamomile to get a nice peaceful pick-me-up.

Everything ran smoothly when I made the order, and it did arrive as scheduled(date given). And, the quality's always been there. Thank you. I do like talking to human beings myself, so I'd like to see the same deals available over the phone as on the website. How 'bout it? Thanks again, William Ferrer

Love Yerba Mate Tea

By: Lisa G of Gillette, WY

I really love the flavor of the San Mateo Tea- We make it up in half gallon containers and I send it with my husband daily in his lunch. He also uses it on bike rides or motorcycle rides. We are sold for life with this tea company. Can hardly wait to try more flavors! Thank You for the GREAT tasting tea!

Pure Mate!

By: Kevin of CA

Having gone through a 5lb. bag of Traditional Guayaki Yerba Mate, and now half way through the San Mateo. I would like to say that this kind of mate is very pure, and tastes very earthy. Unlike some other brands of mate this does not have a smoky flavor. I prefer the San Mateo to the Traditional because to me the taste is very smooth and enjoyable. Now, which one provides the most energy I would have to say they are about the same, with a slight lean towards the San Mateo. Overall a high quality, pure earthy mate. I Highly recommend you try this. Cheers!

My first experience with Yerba Mate.

By: Dan of Medford Wisconsin

When stopping at a local bait shop I decided I wanted a juice drink. I picked one that said it would provide an energy boost. I read the ingredient list and saw Yerba Mate listed. I didn't know what that was so I googled it and found out and found your company. It sounded so good from all the reviews that I decided to order some. I purchased the 5 pound bag of San Mateo based on the descriptions and reviews. It came in just 5 days. I eagerly tried it. It must be an acquired taste. I don't really like most teas and it is kind of like a tea. I am trying ways to make it quickly and easily. I put some in a tea ball and steeped it for a while. I put some through a coffee press too. I didn't feel euphoric or seriously energized but I will keep at it. I did find several friends who would like some as a gift.
