Description
A premium yerba mate for those who prefer a stronger, more intense experience. Taragüi without stems despalada, produced by the renowned Establecimiento Las Marías, contains no stems, offering a bolder, more full-bodied flavor. Its deep intensity and rich texture are ideal for experienced mate drinkers or those seeking a more powerful infusion. This variety is made from carefully selected leaves harvested in the fertile regions of Misiones and northeastern Corrientes, using a meticulous process that preserves its robust character and natural strength.
Origin
Taragüi is Argentina’s leading yerba mate brand, cultivated at Las Marías, one of the most prestigious plantations in the world. Founded in 1924, Las Marías pioneered yerba mate cultivation in the southernmost regions of Argentina. Today, it produces over 56,000 tons annually, controlling every stage of production — from seed to package — to ensure consistency, tradition, and excellence. Taragüi Despalada reflects the strength of its roots: an intense, caffeine-rich blend favored across South America for its energizing qualities and depth of flavor.
Argentina, the world’s largest yerba mate producer, holds the certificate of denomination of origin for its yerba mate — a guarantee of regional authenticity and unmatched quality. This traditional beverage, with origins among the Guarani people, has been cherished for centuries for its energizing, mood-boosting, and health-supporting properties.
