A clean, authentic South American staple made from Ilex paraguariensis. - UNSMOKED (AIR DRIED) FOR A CLEANER TASTE: Unlike smoked varieties, ECOTEAS yerba mate is gently air dried instead of wood smoked. This preserves its natural flavor and avoids heavy smokiness, resulting in a smooth, earthy cup. - TRADITIONAL CUT – LEAF, STEM & POWDER: This classic Argentine blend includes leaf, stem (con palo), and natural powder for a balanced, full-bodied brew. Ideal for bombilla and gourd, French press, tea infuser, or percolator. - NATURALLY CAFFEINATED FOR STEADY ENERGY: Yerba mate contains naturally occurring caffeine. Brewing strength determines caffeine level - use 1 tablespoon for a lighter cup or 2 tablespoons for a stronger preparation. Many enjoy it as a smooth alternative to coffee. - BREW IT HOT OR COLD: Steep in 170–180°F water for traditional hot mate, or cold brew in water for 20 minutes or longer. Enjoy plain or with citrus, mint, or warming spices for a refreshing daily ritual. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0BKGJTR2X | | ASIN | B0BKGJTR2X | | Age Range Description | 18+ | | Best Sellers Rank | #8,982 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #8 in Mate Tea | | Brand Name | ECOTEAS | | Caffeine Content Description | Medium Caffeine | | Container Type | loose | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (1,118) | | Each Unit Count | 8.80 | | Flavor | Unflavored | | Item Form | Loose | | Item Volume | 16 Fluid Ounces | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Manufacturer | ECOTEAS | | Manufacturer | ECOTEAS | | Number of Items | 3 | | Package Dimensions | 9.17 x 7.4 x 4.8 inches; 1 Pounds | | Part Number | fcc_227856_21.6_43.5_fba | | Product Benefits | Natural Energy, Gentle Body Cleansing, Improved Digestion, Overall Well-being | | Recommended Uses For Product | Metabolism, Relaxation, Weight Loss | | Special Ingredients | unsmoked yerba mate, yerba mate with health benefits | | Specialty | Gluten Free, Kosher, Natural, Organic | | Sweetness Description | Not Sweetened | | Tea Variety | Yerba Mate | | UPC | 819162005033 | | UPC | 819162005033 | | Unit Count | 48.0 Ounce | | Units | 48.0 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ECOTEAS - **Flavor:** Unflavored - **Item Form:** Loose - **Tea Variety:** Yerba Mate - **Unit Count:** 48.0 Ounce ## Images ![Organic Yerba Mate Loose Leaf Tea – Unsmoked (Air Dried) Traditional Cut – 1 lb – From Argentina – Kosher, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free (Pack of 3) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81fFQ9RUjpL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How many net crabs are in a serving?** A: I haven't netted any crabs, so there are none to serve. It's tea, after all, with no nutritional value. There are many healthy reasons to drink this tea. I actually use it to settle my stomach. **Q: As someone who hasn't had Mate in a few years, should I get the loose leaf or traditional cut? I don't know the flavor difference.** A: Traditional cut is with stems and not as strong. Whole leaf is a lot stronger without the stems. I like the Traditional cut as a everyday drinker of Mate. I would recommend the Traditional if you have not drank it in a while. I add a little nutmeg or I let some Orange peel dry out on my countertop and break it up into little pieces into my Mate. It’s yummy! Enjoy! **Q: Does this have high caffeine? I have anxiety and tend to stay away from caffeine** A: Yerba Matte does contain caffeine however it is a metabolic stimulator as opposed to a central nervous system stimulator. It is good for people trying to wean themselves from coffee. If you are sensitive to caffeine, this may not be the optimal choice, however I am very sensitive to caffeine and I can enjoy yerba matte once in a while. I don't steep it long at all, unlike traditional matte that can be brewed all day. You might also consider something completely caffeine free like a rooibos tea which is full bodied more similar to the black tea we are accustomed to, or a chamomile tea, a relaxing herbal tea. Blessings to you. **Q: Can you add the tea to smoothies?** A: Are you asking if you can add the whole tea leaf or rather a brewed cup? I suppose you can add anything you want to a smoothie, but I don't think the actual leaf would add anything to a smoothie. However, since many companies have added mate to various drink mixes I would think that mixed right it would be a good addition, might even try it. So can you add mate.....................sure, why not. Mate strawberry banana.................hmmm sounds good. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kick starter morning beverage! *by J***Y on January 27, 2026* It was delivered in a timely manner, fresh tasting with the grind and texture very satisfying.
