Origin of Yerba Mate

Yerba mate originates from the subtropical regions of South America, where it has been consumed for centuries by Indigenous communities and later embraced across Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay.

Made from the leaves of the Ilex paraguariensis tree, it is known for promoting mental clarity, energy, and social connection.

This particular blend starts with green mate from Brazil—fresh, smooth, and less roasted than darker versions—and enhances it with a traditional mix of warming chai spices for a globally inspired twist.

In Brazil, mate is typically sipped from a hollow gourd through a filtered straw known as a bombilla—celebrated for its natural caffeine, earthy flavour, and sense of connection.
