Yerba Mate Playadito 1000g

What I loved most is how smooth and gentle the flavor is. It’s ideal for people who enjoy a traditional mate but don’t want something overwhelmingly strong. It has a natural sweetness and a light body that makes it easy to drink all day without feeling heavy or harsh on the stomach.

Best Yerba mate! I’m from Argentina and I love Playadito

I'm hardly a Yerba Mate veteran or expert (nor from South America), but I've watched "Yerba Mate Lab" videos on youtube and got hooked on the idea of making this drink the traditional way. Playadito has the smoothest and most gentle flavor of all of the yerbas I've tried so far, although because of the style of yerba it is (Argentina style, I believe), it's more coarse-cut than you might be looking for. That's not a fault of this brand, it's just how that style is made. Try Canarias if you want a finer-cut yerba, but it's stronger, too.

Being a full-fledged, raised in New York, currently living in Florida, coffee addict, and 100% gringo, I must say that I have gladly adopted Yerba Mate as my beverage of choice. Most days, I only drink mate. If I need an extra pick-me-up, I'll also have a cup of Joe in the early afternoon. But I have found, undoubtedly, that the energy supplied by my morning mate is superior in all ways to coffee. The South Americans are on to something here. When I was first introduced to Yerba, it reminded me of a big bag of MJ, and I was just hesitant to try it. Gringos believe that tea should be in bags. Luckily, I finally trusted a few fine (and one not so fine) lady friends from Uruguay and Argentina, and now I am hooked. Do not take Huberman's word for it, as he still pronounces it like a gringo. Argentines say "Sherba" and the a is pronounced "ah." it's not "Yer-bah Maa-tay" Come on now, respect the tradition. At any rate, I have tried several brands, including gourmet ones from Argentina, and Playadito is my my go-to. It is readily available in the states, and is mild tasting. Sometimes I add allulose, which is the only artificial sweetener I use, but most times I drink it unsweetened. Bitter foods are good for appetite control and weight loss, para gringoes de gordo. Entiendo? Ciao. Toma mate con gusto!

La mejor yerba. Suave y excelente para disfrutar de unos buenos mates.

Works great if you give the area the watering and attention needed.

I've been fascinated by Yerba Mate recently, since I started looking for something that would help increase my hydration levels and bumped across this awesome South American drink. The very first one I tried (Rose-mont?) was way too bitter, the next one's name has the word love in German is much less bitter, but also less caffeine and more expensive. The one after that has a cross on the label, turned out to be really good. Playadito thus far has the most subtle of flavors, almost to the point of being tasteless. Very nice size leaves, not too much stalks, ok amount of powder. Seems to be mild in caffeine content as well. Goes great with cold apple juice, lemonade or green Gatorade. Probably a good one for beginners. Finally, it seems to work well as a mild appetite suppressant.

Good mate for beginners! Very mellow and pleasant taste.

Great quality! Original brand.
