Dark Roast Java Mate- [1 lb.]

I could write for days on how awesome this stuff is , I quit drinking coffee I have been addicted since high school and I have OD on coffee and it is not fun, since I found out about it ( when I was working at a healthfood store and there was a demo on it) I have drank it for a year ot more now it helps me concentrate , it has gotten rid of my anxiety and my depression , Its the only thing I can say that has done it . Thank you guayaki sooooooo much!!

I'd been eyeing the java mate for a while now but only just got around to ordering myself a one pound bag to try out. I brewed a cup, added some milk and sugar and took a sip. Absolutely delicious. It does remind me somewhat of coffee, though it also sort of reminds me of hot cocoa in a way despite it not having any semblance of a chocolatey flavor. Its not acidic like coffee and the ramon nut really reins in the mellow mate flavor. Highly recommended for any mate lovers who have a taste for coffee.

This is my second order of Java Mate, (i just ordered 2 pounds). I never thought I could live without my morning coffee, but after adopting a much healthier lifestyle in every way, weight training, cardio, organic foods and skin care, I knew that the stomach ache I get with morning coffee was probably the acid. I loved the guayaki teas, but preferred tea for the afternoon. When I decided to try Java Mate for my morning "brew", I was hooked. Robust enough to get me going, yet so smooth and delicious (and healthy). My tummy thanks me, I feel so much better in the mornings now!

This is one of my favorite Guayaki blends. It provides a rich and full flavored beverage with a noticeable bitterness that adds to the complex flavors. This is the one mate I am often tempted to add a drop of milk to, and it makes an excellent coffee substitute. The mate flavor is certainly present, but the ramon nut layers over it to create a unique beverage. Highly recommended!

This is a PERFECT substitute for coffee. I love it's fragrance and flavor plus the benefits of Yerba Matte. Makes SUPER evening drink after dinner with desert. I sweeten it with a touch of stevia and alomond milk. THANKS for bringing this delightful blend from the forest. The people from there know how to live with MOTHER EARTH.

Having been a coffee drinker all my life, the Dark Roast Java Mate is my all time favorite. Although science has established that drinking coffee is good for you, they are not telling the whole truth. The substance caffeine is good for you, but the coffee bean roasted causes a lot of acidity in the body and an over acidic body is the cause of many of our civilized diseases of today (obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetic, Alzheimer's, etc. Thanks to Guayaki Dark Roast Java Mate I will be spared such a future.

I couldn't believe something that doesn't really smell like coffee could have such a robust flavor. I'm very pleased. After giving up coffee for traditional Yerba Mate, I would still enjoy the occassional cup when out. Now I have the pleasure of enjoying something so close in flavor without the risk factor of drawing me back in to the habit of the dreaded coffee. I loved the stuff, but it didn't love me, causing some uncomfortable digestion and plumbing issues in my aging body. Thanks for giving me back one of my most enjoyable flavors in life without the side effects and all the benefits of Mate.

Every morning, I greet the day with a cup or two of Mate with almond milk. I mix the Dark Roast with the Vanilla Nut and enjoy it hot. Can't live without it!

Glad I ordered this. A great way to start the day. Dark, tasty, satisfying! Will order again when I run out, as can't find this locally in Portland OR

In enjoy this -as a replacement for my coffe!!! It has the same taste- gives me a hot cup in the morning- and gives me a bit of a boost- naturally! I buy the loose leaf-and make it in my coffee pot!
