Organic Yerba Mate Roasted (Aged) — Bold Energizing Herbal Tea

Organic Yerba Mate Roasted (Aged) takes the classic energy of South American mate and adds a bold, toasty depth that makes it one of the most satisfying coffee alternatives you can find. Dark, rich, and complex — this is the mate for coffee drinkers looking to transition to something different but equally powerful.

Roasted Mate: For the Coffee Lover

The roasting process gives this mate a characteristic smokiness and caramel-like depth that resembles a dark roast coffee more than a traditional herbal tea. It's still distinctly yerba mate in its stimulant profile (caffeine + theobromine + theophylline), but the flavor has that satisfying roasted quality that morning coffee drinkers crave. Aged before roasting for extra smoothness.

• Origin: South America (Argentina/Paraguay)
• Processing: Aged then roasted
• Flavor notes: Toasty, smoky, slightly earthy, bold
• Caffeine: Medium-high (~80 mg per serving) + theobromine + theophylline
• Brew temp: 170–185°F (slightly higher than green mate, lower than black tea)
• Steep time: 3–5 minutes
• Great for: Morning coffee replacement, focus and productivity

Brewing Yerba Mate Roasted

Use 1–2 tsp per 8 oz at 170–185°F. Steep 3–5 minutes. The roasted notes come through beautifully black, but a splash of oat milk creates a coffee-like experience. Re-steepable 2–3 times. For traditional gourd brewing, fill halfway, add warm water, and enjoy multiple infusions throughout the morning.
