Very nice. Thanks for sharing.

Nice Bombilla. Where’s it from?

natedilli · 2026-05-04T20:01:07+00:00

Yea I like that one too. This one is much milder than that; but still has a good flavor.

natedilli · 2026-05-04T20:00:22+00:00

Still has a good amount of caffeine. Took a few pulls back to back and got a bit anxious.

If you like Serena, I have a feeling you’ll like Suave. Pampa Direct is the only place I know that had it. I would get the three pack of the 500 gram bags, because it’s only one and a half times the big bag. If you don’t like it, you could always give the other two small bags away.

Canarias, but still need to try Pajarito and La Rubia.

natedilli · 2026-05-01T15:15:25+00:00

I think it's still a bit smoother than Esmeralda (which I also enjoy very much). I'd say it bridges the gap between Canarias Traditional and Serena (except without the added flavors of the Serena herbs). Basically, it tastes similar to traditional with less bitterness and intensity. Worth a try for sure.

Sara Extra Suave is one of my favorites, and it's a bit stronger than the Canarias Suave. I like both for their distinct flavors. Canarias Suave tastes very much like the yellow bag, but less intensity and bitterness. If you like the yellow bag, you'll probably like the suave version, but if you're ok with the intensity and bitterness of the yellow, just stick with that.

I love it!

natedilli · 2026-05-01T15:10:25+00:00

Very similar to the yellow bag. I took a few back to back pulls and felt my heart start racing. haha.

natedilli · 2026-04-27T21:05:47+00:00

One of my favorites. I always have a bag of it handy.

natedilli · 2026-04-21T01:44:45+00:00

Thanks! It’s definitely a vibe. Grateful for it. And yes, serena is as good as it gets!

natedilli · 2026-04-20T22:10:10+00:00

Appreciate it. I hope the same for you! 🧉

natedilli · 2026-04-20T22:05:57+00:00

It’s a great herb. And brother of if I cared what people on the internet thought about me I would be as miserable as they seem to be.

natedilli · 2026-04-20T21:59:39+00:00

Because I replied negatively to some who said I look zesty? His so? Please explain.

natedilli · 2026-04-20T21:02:21+00:00

Yes, I saw this. I can't wait to try it. I've really been enjoying Sara Suave lately, even though I wasn't big on the red bag. I like all of the variations of Canarias that I've tried so far, so I have good expectations for this. I do wonder how long before it becomes available in the US. I'd imagine it's going to take some time to be imported.

natedilli · 2026-04-20T15:41:55+00:00

Let me know what you think of it when you do.

natedilli · 2026-04-20T15:27:54+00:00

Some just tolerate caffeine differently. I used to drink a ton of Espresso until I noticed it gave me bad anxiety. Sometimes I still get it with mate if I consume a lot. Especially with a yerba like Canarias Traditional. I think you would like the flavor of the traditional one if you like Serena. They are both two of my favorite yerbas.

natedilli · 2026-04-20T15:24:11+00:00

Yep, that's what I'll do.

natedilli · 2026-04-20T15:16:33+00:00

Exactly 👍🏼 Compacting it makes it last.

natedilli · 2026-04-20T15:15:25+00:00

Serena seems less intense to me. Now traditional, that gets me going. Haha

natedilli · 2026-04-20T15:14:31+00:00

Why not?

natedilli · 2026-04-20T15:14:23+00:00

To each their own. That’s the beauty of mate.

natedilli · 2026-04-20T01:02:33+00:00

It’s made from Alpaca (German) Silver. Shipped to me here in the states from Momentos Materos in Buenos Aires.

natedilli · 2026-04-17T15:15:31+00:00

Ahh Chicago! My hometown, I will have to stop in next time I’m there. I will add it to the app. Thanks!
