From DAVIDsTEA

A delicious gift

According to ancient South American legend, maté was a gift from the gods. When an old man saved two visiting goddesses from a jaguar attack, they thanked him with the maté plant, from which he could prepare a drink of friendship. It has been a central part of Argentinian social gatherings and daily life ever since. (MK Kosher)

Ingredients: Organic green maté from Argentina.

This loose leaf is one of the most simplest to make. I make this tea every morning when I’m in a hurry. Doesn’t need too much attention with this tea, it’ll turn out mostly the same. So if you’re in a rush to go to school/work, this is good. No fancy gaiwan or large tea pots, just a cup with a mesh ball or a steeper will give you the same taste.

Great to have in the morning, this tea is ideal for everyone! This does contain a large amount of stimulants, but some say it doesn’t work. At first, it doesn’t work as well as coffee… BUT it’s something that you have to keep on drinking to feel the stimulants actually activating in your brain. IT WORKS! :D

Definitely not a bad tea. To me, it’s sort of like a Genmaicha, but without all the toasty rice flavour that I find so off-putting. I often find Genmaicha way too vegetal and sort of dirt-y tasting. The maté thankfully has none of those notes, just a subtle toasty-ness that is definitely not unpleasant :)

Nice on a summer evening after a light meal, or as a companion for your morning commute.
