Ingredient Overview
Yerba mate is closely associated with South American tea-drinking traditions. Its leaves naturally contain caffeine and polyphenols, which can be concentrated in extracted ingredients.
The social tradition of drinking mate gives this leaf a particularly recognisable cultural background. Its naturally occurring caffeine and polyphenols also make it relevant to concentrated ingredients. Extracted mate brings those leaf constituents into dry preparations, with its characteristic taste remaining part of the botanical’s identity.
