Tasting Notes
Expect a full-bodied flavor profile that's smooth, but rich. Canarias is a yerba mate with complex notes starting with earth, malt, and hay, leading into subtler hints of bread, roasted nuts, milk chocolate, and peanut butter. For the best flavor, we recommend brewing with a water temperature of around 155-170ºF (68-77ºC).
Who It’s For
Canarias is often a bit too intense for beginner palates, but some find it a lot more pleasant than other brands because of its smoothness. If you like a strong mate with a creamy mouthfeel, is long-lasting, and for a good caffeine boost, then Canarias may be for you.

FAQs
FAQs
How Do You Prepare Yerba Mate?
Yerba mate is traditionally prepared in a gourd with a bombilla, but can also be prepared just like tea or coffee. Whether that be a french press, teapot, strainer, coffee maker, etc. Anything that allows you to steep the leaves and strain it, is a potential way to prepare it!
What Does Yerba Mate Taste Like?
Similar to tea and coffee, yerba mate in general can taste earthy, bitter, and smoky. However, the flavor profile can vary greatly from brand to brand.
How Long Does A Bag Of Yerba Last?
The average-sized gourd will use about 30-50g of yerba when filled halfway to two-thirds. So for a 500g/1.1lb bag, that'll give you 10-17 sessions or 1.5-2 weeks.
Best Way To Store Yerba Mate
All yerbas are best stored in an air-tight container, in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
If the yerba is not aged and green (like La Palma), it is best stored in the fridge or freezer to retain its freshness and color. However, aged yerbas can also be safely stored in its original packaging.
Does Yerba Mate Expire?
All yerbas are given a 2-year expiration from the date it was produced, and will be labeled on each bag.
Why Can't I Make A Mountain Of Mate?
A picture-perfect mountain of mate can only be made with powdery, finer-cut yerbas, such as those from Uruguay and Brazil. If the leaves are too large (Argentine yerbas), it cannot "stick" together. However, with coarser cuts, a perfect mountain is not necessary anyway and can be ignored.
