Origin of our mate.
WHERE DOES OUR MATÉ COME FROM?
GROWN IN ARGENTINA
Mate is (almost) exclusively grown in South America, so it was quite naturally during our trip to Argentina that we found the perfect mate.
1. Our mate is grown in its natural environment and with respect for the environment.
2. Coming from fair trade with local producers.
3. Impeccable quality and a new generation cultivation technique.
PREMIUM QUALITY
Farmers take great care all year round for high quality mate:
1. Each seed is carefully selected.
2. In the first growth phase, the plants are protected in the nursery.
3. Each plant is then planted directly in the Amazon forest in its natural environment.
4. Careful harvesting and smoke-free drying, 100% natural.
Our mate is unique in its kind because the plants are grown with patience and respect.
PERFECT DRYING AND REFINING
Once the mate is harvested, it is then dried for several hours in contact with heat, without smoke.
Our mate is made up of 98% leaves, it contains no branches or dust.
A MATÉ READY TO BE TASTED
Our mate is then mixed and packaged in an ESAT in Gironde (33).
