Description
The Mate Factor Organic Dark Roast Loose Tea delivers the energizing benefits of traditional South American yerba mate in a rich, full-bodied blend. This premium organic tea undergoes a careful dark roasting process that creates deep, complex flavors while maintaining the natural caffeine content and nutritional profile that makes yerba mate so prized. Sourced from certified organic farms in Argentina, this loose leaf format allows for optimal brewing control and maximum flavor extraction. Traditional Medicinals ensures the highest quality standards through rigorous testing and sustainable sourcing practices. Yerba mate naturally contains caffeine, theobromine, and theophylline, providing sustained energy without the jitters often associated with coffee. The dark roast process reduces the natural bitterness of yerba mate while enhancing its earthy, smoky characteristics. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, this tea supports mental clarity, physical endurance, and overall wellness. The 12-ounce package provides excellent value for regular mate drinkers and allows for customizable brewing strength. Perfect for those seeking a healthy alternative to coffee or traditional teas, this organic yerba mate offers authentic South American flavor and energizing benefits.
