When talking about the many types of tea we sell, Yerba Mate is not a part of the standard Camellia Sinensis plant but from a holly plant called Ilex Paraguariensis plant that is indigenous to South America. Â Yerba Mate comes in two versions - Green (non roasted) Yerba Mate or Roasted Yerba Mate, Â Â both coming from the same plant but different types of processing. The finest yerba mate is shade grown in the subtropical rainforest, sheltered from direct sunlight to produce dark, hunter green leaves rich with flavor and nutrients. Seeds are planted in the shade of taller trees and the leaves and stems are harvested and dried by hand. After a flash heating process which preserves nutritional properties, the leaves and stems are dried at low temperatures and aged in cedar chambers for up to one year which produces a smooth, rich flavor. Â When talking about Traditional Yerba Mate, the standard drink for people of South America, it is the green or unroasted version of Yerba Mate. While we offer a lot of Yerba Mate, our clients prefer to drink Roasted Yerba Mate.
