Its flavor is delicious , this herb you consume a liter of water and still feel like you can continue drinking ,is is a very good herb
This mate is fine cut with no stems which makes for a very appealing look. I can't speak in detail about the taste as I blend it with Chai Spice Mate (also from GOYERBAMATE). In addition I add some store bought mushroom powder for enhanced nutrition. This Mate blends well with these other ingredients which speaks to it's mild flavor and versatility.
My wife has mate cocido every morning, and usually drinks Cruz de Malta or Taragui. But she was looking for something stronger, like Uruguayan or Paraguayan yerba, but still non-smoky and non-dusty like Argentine yerba.
Centenaria, because of its low dustiness, fulfills those criteria. It does have the typical Uruguayan flavor which is a little different than Argentine, but she likes it pretty well. I like it for drinking with mate and bombilla.
While I have not used this straight using a bombilla, blending it with a mix with stems adds a more full bodied flavor. I also have used it with a press without issue and it has a strong flavor that might be an acquired taste. i would recommend this Yerba Mate.
