Description
Yerba Mate “Libre Clásica”
Origin and Production:
“Libre Clásica” Yerba Mate is imported from Brazil to Argentina by La Cachuera S.A., the renowned company behind the popular Amanda brand. This yerba mate is produced and packaged in Brazil by Agroindustrial Elacy LTDA, ensuring its authenticity as a Brazilian product.
First Impressions:
At first glance, the bright red packaging and Spanish labeling don’t immediately evoke the typical image of Brazilian yerba mate. However, upon closer inspection, its characteristics align with the distinctive style of Brazilian yerbas crafted for export to Uruguay, drawing an unavoidable comparison to the well-known Canarias brand.
Grinding and Flavor Profile:
“Libre Clásica” shares many similarities with Canarias, both in its grind and flavor. The fine, powdery grind is quintessential of Brazilian yerbas exported to Uruguay, providing a smooth and rich infusion.
- Flavor: Compared to Canarias, Libre Clásica has a slightly more bitter and intense profile. It could be described as a “Canarias Strong,” though the difference is subtle and not overwhelmingly pronounced.
- Aroma: True to its Brazilian roots, it delivers a bold aroma that complements its robust taste.
Who Will Enjoy It:
If you’re the type of mate drinker who notices and appreciates even the smallest nuances in flavor, Libre Clásica offers a fascinating alternative. Its slightly bolder bitterness makes it an intriguing choice for those who enjoy a more intense yerba mate experience.
