Yerba Mate Taragui 500g

Taragüi Tradicional is the pack most Argentines picture when they think of everyday mate. It is made by the Las Marías plantation, which has been working with yerba since 1924, and it is a traditional blend with stems (“con palo”): balanced, full-flavoured and slightly bitter in the classic way.

Taste and character

• Classic Argentine mate: grassy, earthy and rounded
• More body than mild blends, with a clean finish
• Reliable for many refills in one gourd

Good to know

• 500 g pack — about three to four weeks of daily mate for one person
• A good benchmark yerba: if you want to learn what “real” mate tastes like, start here
• Works hot, and also cold as tereré

Prefer something stronger? Look at Taragüi Sin Palo or Energía. Prefer something gentler? Try Union Original or a flavoured blend.
