You truly are an experienced matero. Your descriptions are vivid and detailed to the point that I could almost taste it! 😀 I'm thinking of getting this one and having it predominantly as a tereré, as I cycle through Canarias, Cruz De Malta and Taragui Sin Palo as the warm infusions. Salud!
I'm very very new to yerba mate ill have my first cup In a few days waiting for my yerba to arrive. I was so addicted to Rockstar rebull and monster. Moved to coffee and it doesn't sit well in my stomach, have a friend who did his mission in Brazil and he drinks this everyday different brand.
It’s good stuff! Unless you’re preparing it cocido style (think iced tea), it’s really hard to chug this stuff back, and I’m no stranger to knocking back monsters super quick.
@Yerba Mate Now! thanks for the info I got my stuff in today too bad I'm at work but I'm ready to not have kidney stones, one of the main reasons I stop drinking energy drinks.
That’s interesting man. Just ordered three packs to keep me up all day long, thanks for your detailed review. By the way what is your favorite pure Yerba mate ?
Hey dude thanks a lot for the help and videos its much appreciated. So far I tried Kraus Pure Leaf (very bitter), Playadito (very smokey!), I love this one (CBSe Energia) with its mild taste.. I also grabbed Cruz De Malta due to your recommendation but haven't gotten around to it yet.. Which would you recommend me to try? :)
Just binging on all of your videos. I just can't get Liebig here in Canada but I just saw CBSE Guarana in a store close to me, so I will buy it based on your recommendation. do you find the Guarana caffeine punch to strong?
the flavor is too strong for me. I'm not knocking it though. i mixed what i had bought with a more bland organic yerba brand and it was a lot better! it was not as overbearing with flavor. great video! :D
Hows it compare to canarias in terms of strength? Canarias is probably one of the strongest mate's i wonder if the added Guarana makes it even stronger than Canarias?
Ive just ordered this aswell as rosamonte for my first time trying yerba mate, do you use hot or cold water with this flavour ? Sorry if its a stupid question
The overlap between a channel with 6000 subscribers and one with 800 will never cease to amaze me. I'm the same Matt from Snus at Home! This is just a little pet project for something I like to use. Yerba and tobacco have a lot of overlap, you know!
@@yerbamatenow I doubt there is any "smoked" Yerba in Latinamerica. They do not really smoke it. They rather stack it on racks which sit on posts and let it naturally air dry. Since here the sun is hot and in summer it gets 40 degrees Celsius in the shaddow easily. So smoking Yerba is most likely a myth. They pack the leaves only on racks on an huge aerea and once dry, lets say for 1 to 2 weeks the leaves are collected by the Yerba company who mills and packs it. The smoked flavour most likely comes from hot mills which get hot during operation. The milling process should dry the leaves and stems further and only maybe in the mill the Yerba could be smoke dried further as an accelerated drying process.
This Yerba is an chemical flavoured shit. In the ingredients it says clearly Yerba, Poleo and Cedron are natural herbs and the rest is chemically flavour, aka essential oils (extracts made in laboratory). Essential oils, so artificial flavours are guarana (not even natural herbs) and menta. This is in the last 5 years really a plague in Latinamerica. They skip all natural herbs for adding and replace them all with essential oils - basically artificial extracts. In Florida you are supposed to drink the Yerba as Terere and not as Mate. Florida is a hot state so you are supposed to drink Yerba as Iced Tea or aka Terere. Terere means basically iced tea. That is you take your 40 oz Stanley tumbler or similar and fill it 3/4 with tap water. Then add an 200 gramm Iceblock into the tumbler. Then do the same as with Mate. If its with ice water it is called Terere - if it is with hot water it is called Mate. Mate you drink in cold or colder countries like Argentina or the northern states of the US and Canada as well as Europe. Terere you drink in hot countries like Paraguay or the southern states of the US. In Southamerica nobody in their right mind would drink (hot) mate in an environment of 40 degrees Celsius - those people would be considered out of mind. So Florida is for Terere and not Mate. Same thing just with ice cold water (think of iced tea instead of english tea). In Paraguay I can find only one single brand which contains 100% herbs which is one variety of the Pajarito brand. That contains natural herbs of Yerba (Ilex paraguairiensis), MentaMentha spp), Burrito (Aloysia Polystachia) and Cedron (Aloysia Triphilla). So these are all real natural herbs and not oil essences bought in bulk from the food industry. Why is this important? Yerba which contains essential oils and flavours turns allmost complete black and dark after exposition to air (oxidation) if you leave the guampa and bombilla unattended for lets say 20 minutes on the balcony in the shaddow in an environment of 40 degrees celsius in the shaddow. Now guess what that stuff does in your stomach and intestine. Yerba with natural herbs does not do this and it stays fresh for about 2 hours or longer. If they start to cheat in the ingredients and replace natural herbs with artificial flavours you will notice this this way. Often these 3 or 4 artificial flavours are incompatible between each others and can cause you health issues. Do not buy Yerba with artificial flavours which are basically essential oils added to the product. That stuff gets nasty under air oxidation and in higher temperatures. Just frankly dangerous for your health but nobody will admit that or tell you.

Salud!
I actually like it more as a hot mate! It’s satisfying like hot cider is, and I think some milling spices would taste great here too.
The menthol flavor was a surprise but i genuinely loved this half kilo. I tried the berry cbse as well and its AMAZING. Going to try tropical next.

By the way what is your favorite pure Yerba mate ?
So far, it’s Playadito. That taste is just so sweet and wheaty and warm, I couldn’t ever not be in the mood for it
Is CBSe guarana your favorite one ?
Try sleeping more and doing less. There is no need for caffeine all day...
@@yerbamatenowone of my all time favorites too :)
@@sempi8159You’re right, I’m currently working on that
Nice! a wipe with a bag of Yerbe how hipster of you (takes a sip off his Mate)

I also grabbed Cruz De Malta due to your recommendation but haven't gotten around to it yet.. Which would you recommend me to try? :)
Try any sort of barbacua; if you think Playadito is smoky, it’ll blow you away
@@yerbamatenow sounds like its more smokey? I'd prefer something mild as this CBSe Guarana.
7:32 Oh yeah case making me love Yerba mater it’s not so much bitter
Specilaay the first sips right
Great review! Thanks! Subbed
Just binging on all of your videos. I just can't get Liebig here in Canada but I just saw CBSE Guarana in a store close to me, so I will buy it based on your recommendation.
do you find the Guarana caffeine punch to strong?
Why not buy online?
the flavor is too strong for me. I'm not knocking it though. i mixed what i had bought with a more bland organic yerba brand and it was a lot better! it was not as overbearing with flavor. great video! :D
Try it cold!
You have a flavor of yerba that you like better?, I always prefer the mint flavor.
Either unflavored, but a fruity tereré is something I love
Hows it compare to canarias in terms of strength? Canarias is probably one of the strongest mate's i wonder if the added Guarana makes it even stronger than Canarias?
Canarias is far stronger - rather than seeing this as a guarana enhanced yerba mate, think of this as a flavored one.
So how much caffeine? Drinking cbse berry flavor
Ive just ordered this aswell as rosamonte for my first time trying yerba mate, do you use hot or cold water with this flavour ? Sorry if its a stupid question
You can do either one, but usually colder water is less bitter than warm water
Do you do tobacco reviews or is that someone else?

Chica Argentina y mate Argentina me gusta
Argentina has some of the best looking women in the world. Cheers!
Is this non smoked Yerba mate?
I think so! It doesn't taste smoked behind the guarana.

I got an almost menthol background note from this
I get the same from a lot of yerbas, but not all of them. I wonder why!

All of our homes are air conditioned, and despite snow never falling, our springs can be quite cold indeed - drinking warm things is nice!
Et ben CBSe a mis le paquet question marketing pour le nouveau au guarana,mais désolé cela a un goût chimique.
Parfois, c’est exactement ce dont je suis d’humeur, de nos jours. Personne ne boit un Red Bull pour sa saveur subtile et entièrement naturelle !
