I bought this Yerba Mate as a gift for my nephew, and he absolutely loved it! The flavor is rich, smooth, and not too bitter, making it perfect for both new and experienced drinkers. He mentioned that it gave him a nice, clean energy boost without the jitters of coffee, which is exactly what he was looking for. The packaging was great, and the freshness was noticeable from the first brew. Overall, this was a great purchase, and I’ll definitely be buying more in the future. Highly recommend!

Yerba mate Cruz de Malta is the BEST Yerba mate period! I have been their loyal costumer since 1997, 27 years…yep! It all started when I moved to live here and I learned that they didn’t sell Yerba mate in the Supermarkets! So I wrote an email to Cruz de Malta in Argentina and asked if there was anyway I could order it directly from them or if they could tell me where to buy it near me. A very nice lady answered my email letting me know that I couldn’t buy it anywhere around my area and that sadly they couldn’t directly ship it to me either. I was so sad to hear that because I couldn’t drink coffee and mate was what I drank every morning. Cruz de Malta team understood how homesick I was feeling not being able to find mate anywhere close to where I reside. But showed me they cared and surprised me with a gift of a large box with yerba mate in the mail 🥹 I was beyond excited and literally felt hugged! From that day forward I understood that Cruz de Malta company is more than a business! See, mate is “shared” with friends and strangers but mate is more than a drink! When we share a mate with someone else we are sharing a moment, living an experience, welcoming someone to our homes, we sometimes even share it with a stranger. Making mate is a ritual! Now about today’s experience, Cruz de Malta did it again through Amazon. Now days I can find Yerba mate near me where I reside and I always buy Cruz de Malta brand. Yesterday, I went out of town and forgot to pack my yerba mate tea although I did pack my gourd and bombilla🧉! I thought what now? I need my morning mate or else I can’t function 😅 So I am a loyal Amazon Prime customer and thought I could probably get yerba mate shipped to the hotel I’m staying and get it in a couple of days. Well, I was blown away by Amazon when at checkout I was offered a next day shipping for a couple of dollars more! I couldn’t believe I was going to be able to drink my morning mate the very next day! ( hours from the time I placed my order) so next morning as I was walking to the hotel cafeteria my yerba mate was delivered! I am beyond thankful for a fast delivery and for being able to still find my favorite and the best yerba mate, Cruz de Malta no matter where I go! Thank you Cruz de Malta and Amazon! The Cruz de Malta yerba mate package was very well wrapped in plastic and taped around to better secure it. About Cruz de Malta yerba mate, I read a few reviews that complained about the “ bitterness” and “dust”, it made me smile, because some people just don’t take the time to learn about something but they just complain about it. I will suggest you Google how to make a good mate first. It is very simple to do. And for those who don’t know about yerba mate brands. Cruz de Malta is a top notch brand since 1874. As I couldn’t put it any better as this part of an online article that I read online that says, …”Cruz de Malta is one of the greatest pleasures of Argentines. It is a herb that believes in the authenticity of taste and quality…” Here are a few tips I found online to help out others that would like to make mate: 🧉💕 Prepare Yerba Mate with a Gourd and Bombilla 1. Fill a yerba mate gourd ⅔ with loose yerba mate. 2. Tap the loose yerba mate to one side to create a pit. 3. Moisten the pit with cool water. 4. Insert a bombilla into the pit. 5. Pour small sips of 150°F water into the pit. 6. Share and enjoy! To these tips I will add, once you poured the water in the mate gourd/cup don’t let the mate sit there because it’s going to get bitter. Sip it as soon as you pour it! For the first mate, start with a little bit of cold water and then add the hot water but sip it right away and remember the water doesn’t have to boil. The first couple of mates are not the good ones 😅 we called the first mate the fool mate or something like that! Yerba mate is a very healthy choice full of polyphenols, antioxidants, enjoy and explore different variations, drinking it hot ( mate) or drinking it cold ( Terere) adding mint leaves, lemon, orange peels, honey, the sky is the limit! I hope my honest review helps bring some clarity to someone that is looking for a great yerba mate brand to make a good choice. Cruz de Malta is a great, “suave” ( light) mate brand and the good flavor last till the last mate. Give it a try! 🧉💞

I bought this as I just started trying yerba mate, and learnt this was good for beginners. And yes, it's definitely helped me get through uni classes. And the packaging was lovely, it came with a chocolate.

Came quick and it's is smooth and delicious 😋 thank you

Exactly what was advertised. Very pleased . Will be purchasing again soon

Il Cruz de Malta è il miglior yerba mate. Polvere di yerba contenuta al minimo, "elaborado con palo", senza inopportuni aromi estranei aggiunti. Ne consumo quotidianamente e considero conveniente acquistarlo qui, su Amazon tedesco, visto che comprese le modeste spese di spedizione se ordino 5-10 pacchi risparmio molto rispetto all'acquisto equivalente in Italia, dove abito. Consiglio non tanto una buona matera (che, se nuova, deve essere trattata: ci sono diverse guide in internet ma l'essenziale è riempirla di yerba mate e acqua e lasciarla così per tre giorni; inoltre per il Cruz de Malta deve essere piccola, non grande come la calabaza usata in Brasile) quanto una buona bombilla, il cui filtro consenta un buon tiraggio senza portare alla bocca pezzi di yerba. La polvere presente nel pacco, che sporca l'interno della bombilla, volendo può essere filtrata e usata in bustine da tè vuote che si trovano facilmente in commercio per fare un ottimo "mate del missionario", tisana eseguita con le stesse modalità del tè. Ho usato decine di tipi di yerba mate differenti in questi anni ma il Cruz de Malta resta sempre il migliore, più equilibrato e senza sorprese.

Ausgeglichener Yerba Mate. Wenig staubig und sehr wenige Stängel. Bin wirklich sehr zufrieden
