So this is why the women are attractive; steaks, ciggies and fat burning mate?

This is awesome, glad you are spreading the gospel. In the mountains of Colorado USA and I drink La Merced every morning! We offer it at my stationery/pen shop/coffee bar and I will say yerba mate is fairly popular, though nowhere near levels of espresso etc.

Thanks Kevin, sounds like a great spot to drink mate. I’m a big fan of La Merced!

Thanks for the article Jordan, I've tried a few Yerbas due to the Argentine Ex & do enjoy them. There are 2 other varieties in the caffeinated holly family - Guayusa & Yaupon.

I really like Guayasa! Tastes better to me. Just like Playadito, they don't smoke it during preparation, (and as a result there's less carcinogens in it) . I haven't tried Playadito though, maybe thats the one for me.

Havent tried Yaupon yet.

Thanks Wooly. Yeh I love Playadito. I've had a look at two studies and some studies which seem completely bias and full of variables, including lumping in lamb - whole milk and eggs as carcinogens in the same studies.

Also, some done with black tobacco.

But I do digress, there are some conclusive studies which show over consumption leading to cancers of the mouth and throat.
