Loose Leaf Mate Tea
A South American tradition with the strength of coffee, the calm of tea, and the comfort of community. Mate tea, also known as Yerba Mate, is a bold and energizing herbal infusion made from the dried leaves of the Ilex paraguariensis plant. Celebrated across Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay, mate tea is rich in natural caffeine and packed with antioxidants—offering sustained energy and a unique cultural experience.

About Loose Leaf Mate Tea
Loose-leaf mate delivers an earthy, robust flavour with natural energy-boosting properties. Unlike traditional teas, it comes from a plant unrelated to Camellia sinensis and is brewed in a gourd with a bombilla (metal straw). Whether hot or cold, mate offers a full-bodied taste and lasting clarity, without the crash of coffee. Our blends are sourced from trusted South American growers who honour centuries-old harvesting traditions.
Health Benefits of Mate Tea
Mate tea is more than a pick-me-up—it’s a wellness ally. Known to enhance mental focus and physical energy, it contains antioxidants like polyphenols, vitamins, and minerals that support immune health and metabolism. Studies suggest mate may help with weight management and heart health when enjoyed as part of a healthy lifestyle.
Fun Fact: Drinking Yerba mate is an experience as the cup is made for sharing with your loved ones. It is usually had in social settings when people are sharing the table and is known to build bonds. It is so popular that Argentina has hailed it as their national drink.
