Fortin Traditional, 500g

Product detailed description

Yerba Mate Fortin is produced with special care and completely without chemicals at the Fortin SA plantation. It is one of the oldest plantations in Paraguay. It ages for 12 months and has an intense, smoky flavor. The blend is quite fine, bordering on the Uruguayan standard PU 1, but with a decent amount of stems. The color is a rich, typical khaki. The flavor surprises right from the start. At the forefront, it has an intense but not overwhelming bitterness, very unusual, reminiscent of heavily charred wood bark. What makes this yerba unique is its almost complete lack of acidity, which sometimes just hesitantly emerges from the background. The smokiness is instead wrapped in a gentle vegetal sweetness, expanding the sensory spectrum and making this infusion complex. The energetic efficiency of this yerba is above average but fairly balanced and friendly. Ingredients: 100% Yerba Mate (Ilex paraguariensis) Weight: 500g Country of Origin: Paraguay
