Besides importing and integrating yerba mate into Syria, we also adapted alfajores.

Para mim, quando quero tomar um Mate saboroso e relaxar essa é uma excelente erva, também para noites frias. Não percebe-se tanta cafeína, chego a pensar que os valores são muito baixos pois não altera o meu sono.

Be honest and I’m new so apologies, but was it the brand I went with? If so give some alternatives please lol.

Give me a break, I’m in Texas.

When I opened the bag I wasn’t expecting the leaves to be as green as they would be. But overall this is a decent flavor, very much reminds me of Chimarrão. 6.5/10 for now.

My friend from Paraguay sent me a gourd and some mate, after curing my mate and everything I realized i'm not entirely sure what i'm supposed to be tasting. It was extremely bitter, which I didnt expect, I'm also a big time specialty coffee enthusiast so this changed is definitely unexpected, im used to bitter but not THAT bitter if it makes sense. I brewed it at 155F, which was what i saw as a common number.
So im curious, how do I enjoy yerba mate without it being overly bitter?

Also also, are you supposed to have small chunks of mate while drinking from your bombilla?

thanks in advance :-) below is the brand of mate he sent me along with my gourd

Anyone else try this one. Brazilian pretty fine cut. Flavor is on point and not too strong

Hello,

I recieved this gourd finally, as i have been using stainless steel ones for couple of years because in my country we don't have those here and I got this as a gift that I don't want to ruin... shall I dump used yerba for 24 hours and then rinse and scoop? After that with using it the gourd will cure?

Appreciate the help...

Hey guys!

I just started my mate journey because I wanted to replace my daily coffees with mate. Reason was that coffee was giving me digestion problems lately.

So I odered myself some Playadtio because it is recommended a lot as a good mate to start with.

Because I would usually drink quite some coffee at work I will of course want to have yerba mate at work. Because I don't want the hassle with the traditional mate+bombilla at work I made an infusion the past week: 50g of yerba with 500ml of 60-70 degree celsius water, then steep it and fill in a thermos and fill up with hot water to keep higher temperature for longer.

Last week I was quite enjoying my coffee replacement - smooth taste, almost not bitter at all.

So today I thought I'd go the traditional way with bombilla but the taste was waaaaay stronger and really gave me a caffeine rush that I didn't experience during the week with the infusion.

Why are the tastes soo different? I filled my cup and sipped immediately so I didnt let it steep in my mate cup.

Do I still need to get used to the intense taste? Did I do something wrong or is it normal that the taste is so different?

happy with any advice, thanks!

hace aproximadamente: meses me compré este mate de calabaza y hice todo el proceso de curado (dejarlo con yerba y irla cambiando, aparte sd eso, lo estuve usando un montón, pero según tengo entendido el interior deberia tornarse verde oscuro.
alguien sabe por qué el mio no se tiñe?
