Yerba Mate

Aromatica's yerba mate (grown in Paraguay) has been tremendously popular since we opened the store.  For centuries yerba mate has been revered as a rejuvenator by the people of South America.  A social drink in Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina, it is customarily shared out of a hollowed out gourd.

Its health benefits are legendary.  Yerba Mate contains 196 Active Compounds (vitamins, minerals, amino acids, anti-oxidants, etc.) vs. 144 in green tea.  Argentine cowboys (gauchos) drink it as their "liquid vegetable" and depend upon it to power them through the day.  People have survived drought and famine drinking mate' and some consider it "the drink of the gods." 

It induces mental clarity, sustains energy, aids digestion, boosts the immune system, relieves allergies, and is touted as nature's Viagra!
