Rosamonte Yerba Mate- Traditional con palo (with Stems) 1.1 Lbs (500g)

This is my first experience with Yerba Mate. It tastes wonderful, somewhat smoky with a slight matcha flavor. I made iced tea with berries, mint or lemon balm. I've also added vanilla or cinnamon sugar free syrups to hot tea. I use a french press, it turns out perfectly every time, but had to Google Translate the directions. I'm happy decided on this brand. It gives clean, all day energy, curbs my appetite and reduces sugar cravings. It seems to have no anxiety inducing effects like coffee, so far. The package could be better, the bag rips easily, so be ready to transfer it to a canister or container.

I'm no connoisseur of fine Mattes. I've only tried a few brands, but Rosamonte is my favorite so far. I think the flavor is stronger than others and the loose leaf mix is just the right grade: not too dusty and fine and its not like, straight up leaves either. Its pretty much perfect for probably any type of filter. Also, I don't think there were too many sticks and stems as fillers in the bag. I'm pretty sure the bag Cruz de Malta that I ordered had a bit more of that (although apart from this minor discrepancy, I remember Cruz de Malta being practically indistinguishable from Rosamonte). In any case, I will surely order Rosamonte again for my loose leaf Yerba Matte fulfillments.

Excellent quality and freshness

It has an earthy flavor that I like and the price was good. It's kind of "dusty" as with most teas like this. I've ordered another brand this time, a bulk bag of five pounds. I enjoy different teas and the yerba mate is said to help control blood sugar levels and be energizing. Here's hoping. ;)

My husband loves this product, we keep reordering

Amazing

My niece's husband is Argentinian and sips this stuff all day long. They were coming for a visit, so I thought I'd try to be prepared ... Turns out this is his favorite brand.

This is the first brand of yerba mate I have tried. I found it really pleasant and will definitely buy it again. I was hesitant that it might be too bitter or overpowering, but it wasn't at all. Just make sure to use hot, not boiling water, to steep it. I love sweet drinks, so I added a little honey and YUM! I drink it every morning, and after about a week of doing this, I really have noticed that I am more clear headed and have more energy throughout the day. It also cuts my appetite! I never used to drink caffeinated drinks because they usually make me anxious and jittery (1 soda would do this to me) but this mate is great. I have had no 'crashes' or jitters or anxiety at all. So, if you are new to this drink and want to give it a try, start with the Rosamonte brand.
