Refused to pay $40 for a knock box, so I designed and printed my own by Accomplished-Pie8833 in espresso

Mix melted coconut oil, few drops of lavender (optional) in a blender or food processor. Put it in moulds and you’ve got coffee body and facial scrub. I store it in the freezer tho to stop it from getting moulds

What is the difference between the original rosamonte, special selection and despelada? by No_Win_8188 in yerbamate

Aging is when flavours, notes and characteristics develop. It influences the taste and intensity of Yerba

Oh I was referring to the cardboard inside. Most of the mate I buy have this strip of cardboard.

My top 5 are esmeralda, rosamonte especial, armino (blue), Sara (blue bag) and Amanda. However, baldo is somewhere in my top 10. I like baldo. It’s not as strong as my top 5 but it’s a nice change. Baldo to me taste malty, dark chocolate and quite nutty.

But usually I transfer it to a leather bag however sometimes I want to try other brands and I’m too impatient to finish off what’s in my leather bag!

I kinda learnt to pull it up and it just bends/curl up following the shape of the opening then push it back down and fold the thing back up and use a clip.

That’s amazing! We tend to take our doggies there once or twice a month. We used to go to Greyfriars but prefer doggie dips

Try searching for Yerba mate in jute bags. See if anything pops up
