BALIBETOV Organic Yerba Mate, 2.2 lb Loose Leaf – Unsmoked Pure Leaf, Clean Natural Energy, Gluten-Free & Vegan

Prodotto buono, unico problema è che da metà sacchetto in poi, il Prodotto è molto frantumato

This is the BEST mate I've had yet. Perfect for traditional drinking. Chunky, not very dusty, great taste!

I saw some videos on tiktok that said that yerba mate is like an all natural “ozempic” dupe, and while thats definitely not true, I found a lot of research that said yerba mate is a really good source of smooth and natural energy and can help boost your metabolism. First things first, the bag is HUGE. Depending on how much you use per serving this will last you forever and based on the smell it’s definitely strong and potent. As soon as I opened the bag I was greeted with an organic, earthy, grassy matcha-esque smell that was very pleasant. I brewed it in warm water along with some lavender buds and the brew was very tasty and not bitter at all. Im usually a sweet drink drinker but since this is supposed to be a healthy alternative to my daily morning juneberry redbull I decided to forgo the sweetener and drank it plain. I enjoyed my first cup and was surprised at how smooth and easy to drink the taste was, I often find plain tea and coffee hard to choke down because of the bitterness but this was very nice The brew was very transparent in color and came out as a pale green liquid and I think this may be due to my temperature, and steep time. I want to experiment with different blends like adding mir lavender, peppermint, and fresh lemon, and I also want to try making it cold brew We will see how it goes!

This is a large 2.2 lb bag, so the value for the price is excellent and it lasts a long time if you drink mate regularly. The flavor is clean and smooth, and being unsmoked gives it a fresher taste than many traditional smoked mates. Yerba mate provides steady natural energy and many people prefer it over coffee because it feels smoother without the same crash. One tip: don’t use boiling water. Very hot water makes mate taste overly bitter. Brewing with slightly cooler water brings out a much better flavor. It’s also versatile—you can drink it hot, or prepare it cold with ice, lemon, and mint for a refreshing summer drink. Overall the taste is great and the value is excellent. A few avid mate drinkers who tried it also liked it and plan to buy it. I’ll definitely purchase it again.

I switched to this organic unsmoked mate years ago and I love it. Over the years I have heard unsmoked is healthier than smoked, and since I drink it every single day I made this change. There is just something about the taste of smokey flavor that I will always love, but this one is an absolute best alternative. It is good quality, great taste and I like the size and quantity!
