Celebration Herbals Organic Yerba Mate Tea Roasted, 24Bgs

Yerba Maté, (pronounced herba-may-tay), also known as "Jesuit's tea," comes from the South American Indian name “maté” meaning "drinking vessel" or "gourd". Jesuits added the word "yerba," meaning the herb of excellence. This tea grows mainly in Paraguay, Brazil and Argentina, near streams and rivers and puts forth large white flowers. Maté is grown for its leaves; they are harvested and dried from December to August.

When roasted, Yerba Maté becomes complex and full of body, a perfect substitute for your morning coffee. Little wonder this is the preferred beverage of many South Americans.

All the herbs in this tea are organically grown and prepared, ensuring their natural taste and active properties are enjoyed in every cup of tea. Our organic audit trail enables traceability from the field to your table.

No flavourings, preservatives or sweeteners of any kind.
