#46-- Fans have asked me to talk about the difference in yerba mate from other countries that produce it. Since I'm no subject matter expert on Brazil, I asked one to join us for this episode. Daniele Flores of Mate Solutions and the Mateko App, grew up in southern Brazil where Chimarrão is popular. With Daniele's expertise, we'll reveal the difference between chimarrão and typical Argentina yerba mate as how the prepartion method is different. You'll gain an appreciation for how regional differences have brewed distinct flavors and rituals across the continent.
Show Notes:

• How Brazilian yerba is different
• Where Brazilian yerba is grown and consumed
• State of Parana to Rio Grande do Sul
• Chimarrão - finer ground and different preparation method
• freshness of chimarrao
• tips on keeping it fresh
• Ilopolis
• Mateko Store

Coming up next: I'll introduce you to a personal friend of mine living in Brazil that drinks chimarrão and is a Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu!
