New to the podcast

I’m on your 12th episode on Spotify and I’m disappointed in myself for not discovering your podcast sooner. My family is from Argentina but I was born in Canada and raised in the US (that’s a fun story all in itself!) and my favorite childhood memories was drinking mate with my relatives whenever we would visit them in Argentina. It is shocking (in a good way) to hear your knowledge on mate from an American viewpoint and I love hearing/seeing how popular Yerba mate it becoming in the US. Loving the podcast so far!

Yerba mate breakdowns!

Very informative and down to earth even if this guys tend to favorite chimarrao over other kinds of yerba they are still open minded to most sometimes frustrating when they refer to brands that you will never see in the USA, they still manage to convey the message.

Perfect tone for a podcast about yerba

This is a great podcast. No pontificating about how mate is the only thing anyone should ever drink, no bossiness on how mate should or shouldn't be consumed, just good information and opinions on yerba and yerba accessories. Saludos from China!
