THE BENEFITS OF MATE

Mate is considered a "superfood".

This infusion, drunk for thousands of years, is prized for its benefits:

  • Gentle, natural energy: Unlike coffee, mate's caffeine is released gradually, providing lasting stimulation without jitters or shakes.
  • Mental and physical clarity: Mateine stimulates body and mind alike, keeping you focused, active and calm at once.
  • Rich in antioxidants: Mate is antioxidant-rich - about twice as much as green tea!
  • Muscle recovery and fat burning: A favorite among athletes, mate supports muscle recovery and naturally supports the metabolism.

A SINGULAR TERROIR

At 900 meters of altitude, our mate grows in the heart of the biodiversity of the Santa Catarina region, in the great valley of the Iguaçu river, Brazil.

As with wine, terroir has a decisive influence on mate's final flavor. The minerals in the soil bring more or less bitterness, length or astringency to the final brew.

This region has the distinction of producing a high-quality mate that is particularly balanced, with herbal, floral notes and balanced bitterness.

TRADITIONAL ORGANIC FARMING

For over 100 years, our partner has kept their passion and know-how alive, growing a native yerba renowned for its original taste and famed for its smoothness.

The leaves of this organic yerba mate are harvested at maturity every 12 months. After harvest, the mate is dried naturally (smoke-free) before being enjoyed fresh, or going through an additional stage of aging or roasting.

Tout savoir sur votre Organic Buenos Aires Mate - Eco Refill 500g

What does the Organic Buenos Aires Mate taste like?
Authentic, balanced and deep, with pronounced tannins. This is our Argentine-style blend: a full-bodied flavour that stands comparison with the traditional yerbas.
What cut is this mate?
A blend of leaves, stems and a share of powder — the balance that characterises the Argentine style, giving body and a long finish. See our article on the different yerba mate cuts.
Does Buenos Aires come from Argentina?
No, and it is an important distinction: Buenos Aires is a blend, not an origin. Our yerbas are grown in Santa Catarina, in Brazil; the blend itself follows the Argentine style — leaves, stems and a share of powder, for a full-bodied flavour with pronounced tannins. A blend is defined by what goes into it, not by where the plant grows.
What difference does smoke-free drying make?
A mate dried without smoke keeps its original green profile, free of the wood-fire notes that mask the terroir. It is a choice of taste and of health, since it also avoids PAHs — and it is what sets our mates apart from yerbas dried the traditional way over an open hearth.
Why does organic mate cost more?
Organic production genuinely does cost more: lower yields, more demanding work, certification audited every single year. And yet, thanks to the trust of our customers and to working directly with our growers, we offer the cheapest organic and Demeter mate in France — without giving an inch on quality.
How do I prepare this mate in a gourd?
Fill the gourd two thirds full — allow 25 to 30 g of leaves per 200 ml — tilt it to form a slope, slide the bombilla into the hollow, then pour water at 70–80 °C, never boiling. See our guide to the traditional preparation of mate.
How much caffeine does this mate contain?
Our laboratory analyses measure around 140 mg of caffeine per 1 L of brew, which is one full mate session: as much as a coffee, but released far more gradually.
How does it come packaged?
Your mate comes in a 500 g resealable pouch. It opens at the back by pulling a tab, which forms a pouring spout so you can fill the gourd without spilling. Then close the zip again and store the pouch away from light and strong smells.
How long does this mate keep?
Two years at least, provided you close the zip after each use and keep the pouch away from light and strong smells. Mate leaves are highly sensitive to surrounding aromas: keep them out of the spice cupboard and away from the coffee.
Is this mate certified organic?
Yes, and it also carries Demeter certification — the biodynamic label, stricter still than organic. Our entire range is certified organic by ECOCERT and Demeter.
Where does this mate come from?
It is grown in agroforestry in Santa Catarina, in the Iguaçu valley in Brazil, at 900 metres of altitude, by our partner grower whose family has farmed there for more than a hundred years. The leaves are dried without smoke. See our article from the soil to the cup.
