Yerba Mate C/S (Cut & Sifted) – 4oz Discover the rich, centuries-old tradition of South American tea culture with our premium Yerba Mate C/S (Cut & Sifted). Harvested from the leaves of the Ilex paraguariensis holly tree, this 4oz pouch offers a versatile, loose-leaf experience perfect for traditionalists and modern tea lovers alike. Product Highlights Cut & Sifted (C/S): Expertly processed to remove excess dust and large stems, leaving behind clean, uniform leaf pieces that ensure a smooth brew and prevent clogged bombillas (traditional straws). Earthy & Robust Flavor: Features a distinct, complex flavor profile—deeply herbaceous, naturally smoky, and pleasantly bittersweet with a clean, crisp finish. Versatile Brewing: Enjoy it the traditional way in a gourd with a bombilla, or brew it effortlessly in a French press, teapot, or coffee maker. It also makes a wonderfully refreshing iced tea! How to Brew Traditional Method: Fill your mate gourd 2/3 full. Moisten with cool water first, then insert your bombilla and pour in hot (but not boiling) water—around 160°F to 180°F (approx. 70°C to 80°C). Sip and repeat! Standard Infusion: Use 1–2 teaspoons per 8 oz of hot water. Steep for 3 to 5 minutes depending on your desired strength, strain, and enjoy.
