Centenaria Traditional with Stems Smoked Yerba Mate 1 kg (2.2 lbs)

good, but flavor doesn't hold up

This yerba comes on strong at first but washes out before the thermos is empty.

Flavorful, long-lasting, and Energizing.

I was hoping to venture out of my comfortable zone of lighter Yerbas such as Playadito, CBSe Hierbas Serranas, La Merced De campo, and the like--into something a bit stronger. This Yerba is excellent thus far. The flavor is not just earthy; there are sweet notes that hold throughout multiple cebadas/refills. I also get an energy boost that is sustained and stronger than what I had become accustomed to from the aforementioned products. This is my go-to when I have long days ahead or when I am seeking a tad-bit more mental energy and clarity.

Where is the stem?

This is so powdery, it clogs up my bombilla. It also has a very sour taste. Never buying this again and throwing away the two bags i bought.
