About this product

Yerba maté is a South American beverage steeped in centuries of tradition. Campo Sur's La Merced blend combines finely cut leaves and stems for a balanced, smooth cup. The loose-leaf format allows you to control strength and steep time, creating everything from a delicate morning infusion to a bold afternoon brew. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the leaves' natural oils and flavor.
