Like calling forth a storm from deep within the Amazonian jungles of Ecuador, this cousin to the popular yerba maté is deeper, richer, fuller, and contains nearly the caffeine of a cup of coffee. It's grassy and earthy, with an undertone of sweetness, and almost tastes like fresh rainfall. Get your start first-thing in the morning without any of that bitter astringency of black tea or coffee!
