Wonderful tea selection for a full-bodied drinking experience
In principle, the production and preparation of mate tea is uncomplicated. The mate tree, from whose leaves mate tea is made, grows exclusively in South America. Here, after harvesting, the leaves are dried and finely grated. The drink is prepared in a traditional calabash vessel. The finished mate tea is drunk using a bombilla straw. An integrated filter prevents the mate leaves from being sucked in. But of course you can also enjoy your mate tea, whether hot or cold, in normal cups and glasses by straining the mate leaves after preparation. If you can't get enough of Yerba Mate, we recommend our large Schoenenberger - Reform Mate green 500g pack.

If you like it quick and practical, our Salus Mate tea green filter bags are just right for you. So you can quickly and easily prepare your favorite mate drink.
