"Our Blend is rich in flavor, and light on acid. It is a balance of sticks (palos), powder (polvo) and leaves. As with all our blends, they were grown in Argentina and made with love.
Keep in mind that yerba mate has adaptogenic properties. It is an herb that nourishes the adrenals and offers stress support. This means that the body can "adapt" to stress better.
