Authentic South American Vitality with Cruz De Malta Yerba Mate

Experience the authentic taste and energising tradition of Argentina with Cruz De Malta Yerba Mate (1kg). Established in 1874, Cruz De Malta is celebrated worldwide for producing exceptionally smooth, balanced, and premium-quality yerba mate. Naturally rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and clean caffeine, this traditional herbal infusion delivers sustained alertness and focus without the jittery crash often associated with coffee.

Carefully Harvested and Naturally Aged

Cruz De Malta employs a meticulous drying and natural ageing process to mellow out harsh tannins, delivering a milder, rounder flavour with gentle earthy undertones and subtle herbal sweetness. Formulated con palo (with stems and leaves), it provides a harmonious balance that ensures an enduring, consistent infusion throughout your brew.

Key Benefits

  • Clean, Sustained Energy: Packed with mateine (natural caffeine), theobromine, and essential B vitamins to boost physical stamina and mental clarity.
  • Antioxidant Powerhouse: Contains significantly higher polyphenol levels than standard green tea, actively supporting immune health and overall wellbeing.
  • Smooth, Accessible Flavour: Specially cut and aged to reduce excessive bitterness, making it ideal for both seasoned mate enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
  • Generous 1kg Value Pack: Ensures a plentiful supply for your daily wellness ritual.

How to Prepare

Traditional Method: Fill your mate gourd (calabaza) two-thirds full with Cruz De Malta. Tilt gently, insert your bombilla (filtered straw), and pour warm water (around 70°C to 80°C—never boiling) down the side to enjoy repeated infusions throughout the day.

Modern Infusion (Mate Cocido): Brew using a standard French press, cafetière, or tea infuser. Steep one to two tablespoons per cup for 3 to 5 minutes, strain, and serve hot or iced with a touch of honey or lemon.
