    Sara “Extra Suave” yerba mate

    Sara “Extra Suave” yerba mate is the lighter version of the Sara Traditional yerba mate. Sara was founded in 1918 and is well respected in the yerba mate world for its smooth flavor. This “Extra Suave” version contains the stems of the yerba mate plant to lessen the kick that you would get from the traditional Sara yerba mate.

    This yerba mate is a Uruguayan-style yerba mate known for the finer cut leaves but still contains enough stems for those who want to drink Uruguayan style yerba mate but with a slightly lighter flavor.

    Recommend for: Great yerba mate for those looking for a smooth, fine cut yerba mate, with a little less kick to it than the traditional Sara yerba mate

    Yerba Mate FAQs

    When does yerba mate expire?
    All the yerba we ship has at least 12 months of shelf life before it expires.

    How long will a bag of yerba mate last me?
    If you drink one mate per day (about 35g of yerba), here’s how long each size will last:

    • 1lb of yerba (450 to 500g): 13-14 days
    • 2lbs of yerba (900-1000g): About 28 days
      My personal method? I plan for 2 bags of 1lb yerba per month.

    How much caffeine is in yerba mate?
    Yerba mate contains approximately 80mg of caffeine per cup, though this can vary depending on how you prepare it. Traditional methods typically yield higher caffeine content compared to mate cocido (tea bag or French press style).

    Where should I store yerba mate?
    Store your yerba mate in a dark, dry, and cool location, like a kitchen cabinet or pantry.

    How do I keep yerba mate fresh?

    • If you're using a Yerba Crew resealable bag, simply close the seal to keep your yerba fresh.
    • If you have a non-resealable bag, store the yerba in a sealable container or use a rubber band to keep it closed.
