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.

Yerba Mate is good for Weight Loss

By: Bob of Altus Oklahoma

I believe in Yerba Mate as a energy booster and for weight loss. I have lost over 25lbs. I mix Yerba with Lemon Grass Tea for additional digestive help. I have found Yerba to help with GERDs. Enjoy your Yerba Mate

Best Yerba Mate Ever

By: Carol Ann Chidlaw of Oakland, Mississippi

I have been a fan of Guayaki Traditional Yerba Mate for 11 years. I've introduced it to others, too. My husband went on a quest for a cheaper yerba mate and inflicted many other brands upon me in his experimentation. There is none better. I refuse to try any more. Every morning I fix a big steaming cup of it with fresh ginger and sometimes fresh mint, and my day has started off well. You have won a loyal fan for life.

Love it, love it, love it!

By: RoxAnn of Sunnyvale, CA

I've been drinking the mate tea for several years now. Once in a while I slip back into the old habit of drinking coffee for a week or so and start feeling groggy and my stomach feels like a knot. But, after getting back on the tea, my body feels cleaner and runs smoother. I buy the 5lb bag and drink a pot every morning before breakfast. It sets the tone for good habits the rest of the day since I feel so good!

Sustained energy, reduced allergies!

By: Kara of IA

It's nice to have a large amount when you drink alot--which I do periodically. Yerba helped my allergies ALOT, plus, it provides, jitter-free, SUSTAINED energy, unlike coffee, which could cause jitters and causes a crash for me after like 4 hours. Yerba keeps me going for 6 hours, no crash. I love this stuff!

The Right Way to Buy for a Yerba Mate guzzler

By: Ralph of Strongsville, Ohio

I quit drinking coffee just about 1 year ago. I was a pot a morning drinker. I've replaced it with two hearty mugs of Yerba Mate, and the resealable 5# airtight pouch keeps my bulk Yerba tea fresh and wholesome. I like the way I feel every day now too, which I attribute, at least in part, to my new morning brew.
