El Fuego Elaborada is the essence of traditional Paraguayan yerba mate. 🧉 Dry, smoky, with an intense flavour and aroma. Produced using the traditional barbacuá method – the leaves of the Ilex paraguariensis leaves are dried over live flames. It’s the fire that gives it its distinctive, slightly astringent taste and deep aroma that every lover of strong infusions will appreciate.
This variety was created for those seeking strong stimulation and authentic flavour sensations. El Fuego Elaborada makes no attempt to be mild – it shows its strength from the very first sip. It’s a yerba mate that awakens both body and mind while letting you experience the atmosphere of hot Paraguay.
The new edition in a 1kg paper package is a nod to Paraguayan traditions. Yerba mate is packed directly in Paraguay, without any interference in its natural character, exactly in the form in which it is produced – at the source, with no additional stages along the way.
The classic paper packaging reflects formats known from the South American market. The larger portion means not only convenience, but also a longer-lasting supply of intense flavour and energy.
If you value intensity, dryness and a full-bodied aroma, El Fuego Elaborada will become your everyday source of energy. ⚡
Yerba mate is a unique infusion with a characteristic, herbal flavour and natural caffeine content. Depending on the chosen variant, it can delight with a classic profile or a fruity composition of additives. It is also a drink with an interesting tradition of preparation and shared drinking, which has firmly established itself in the daily rituals of infusion lovers.
By choosing yerba mate, you reach for energy and pleasure rooted in the centuries-old tradition of South America.
⚠️ Attention! Drink in moderation! El Fuego is a powerful source of energy, therefore we recommend a maximum daily portion of 20g of yerba mate.
🧉 How to prepare yerba mate? Put about 15g of yerba mate into a gourd. Tilt the mate cup to one side to create a pile of dried leaves. Insert the bombilla into the lower side of the vessel and pour hot water (maximum 80°C) over the leaves. Ready to enjoy!
❄️ A refreshing alternative for hot days: Try tereré – a cold yerba mate! Pour ice-cold water or juice over the dried leaves, add ice cubes, lemon slices, and fresh mint to create the perfect, thirst-quenching drink!
