La Merced Yerba Mate Cosecha Limitada 16.6 oz — Limited-Harvest Aromatic Loose Leaf

La Merced Yerba Mate Cosecha Limitada is a limited-harvest, premium Argentine yerba mate delivered in a 16.6 oz (approx. 500 g) pack, crafted for a balanced, aromatic mate experience.

La Merced’s Cosecha Limitada selection highlights a single-season harvest chosen for its distinctive aroma and consistent flavor profile. This bag contains roughly ten servings and is aimed at those who value traditional mate rituals or want a high-quality loose-leaf infusion for daily enjoyment. The leaves and stems are processed to preserve a rounded, vegetal character that works well both in classic gourd brewing and modern steeping methods.

What makes this limited-harvest yerba mate different from regular blends?

Cosecha Limitada refers to a specific seasonal harvest with select leaves that exhibit unique aroma and flavor concentration. La Merced selects and packages these batches in smaller runs to capture seasonal nuances you won’t find in mass-market blends.

• Smaller production run for distinct seasonal flavors
• Selected leaves and a balanced stem-to-leaf ratio
• Processing aimed at preserving aromatic oils and freshness

How should I prepare La Merced Cosecha Limitada for the best taste?

Use traditional mate preparation for a fuller experience, or try a modern infusion if you prefer milder flavor. Start with dry, room-temperature leaves and adjust water temperature and strength to your taste.

• Traditional: fill a gourd 2/3 with yerba, insert bombilla, pour 70–80°C water
• Modern: steep 1–2 teaspoons per 8 oz in a French press or teapot for 3–5 minutes
• Cold-brew: soak in cold water for several hours for a smoother, less bitter cup

How long does freshness last and how should I store it?

To keep the flavor and aroma intact, store the yerba in a cool, dry, airtight container away from sunlight and strong odors. Proper storage preserves the harvest’s characteristic scent and slows flavor degradation.

• Transfer to an airtight jar or reseal the original bag after opening
• Keep away from heat, humidity, and direct sunlight
• Use within a few months for peak aromatic quality

Who pairs well with this yerba mate—occasions and users?
