Yacuy Fresh Mint Boldo Yerba Mate 500 g (1.1 lbs)

Yerba mate with mint and boldo is very popular in Paraguay for drinking iced yerba. This wild harvested blend from Brazil is smoke free and dust free which creates a much lighter more thirst quenching flavor. The Kurupi and Campesino brands are too strong for me but I can drink this all day, everyday.

Nice clean taste. The mint flavor is light and not too strong or overpowering. I think it is good both hot and cold.

I prefer to cut this with a 'regular' mate, as it is quite bold with the mint, but I do enjoy the flavor very much!

This yerba/erva is equally good hot or cold. It tastes very fresh. The boldo is a bit sour, so some might not like it. I however, love it. It's a unique flavor. Since this yerba/erva is from Brazil, I thought it would be a chimarrão (fine) cut, but it isn't (which makes it easier to prepare than the fine cut). Great to add variety to your rotation!

This is a smooth tasting aged Yerba Mate with restrained mint. I prefer unaged and unsmoked teas with emerald green color in the leaf and cup and bright astringency which seems to me to be more refreshing. For those who prefer a smooth, earthy and less vegetal taste, this is your yerba.
