Yerba Mate Review: Canarias Serena

Canarias is one of the popular brands from Uruguay, known for its strong flavor and finely ground tea leaves. Although it’s an Uruguayan brand, the production process actually takes place in Brazil, by Baldo S.A. in Rio Grande do Sul, a region near the Uruguay border, ideal for cultivating high-quality yerba mate. This is the key advantage of the Canarias brand.

Canarias Serena has gained popularity due to its smoother and easier-to-drink flavor compared to the original Canarias. It’s perfect for those looking for a balanced, easy-to-drink taste.

Aroma

Canarias Serena has a perfect blend of earthy and herbal aromas, with subtle hints of smoke and green vegetables. It also carries a sweet, floral scent, thanks to its infusion of passionflower, mint, spearmint, and linden flowers.

1st Impressions

The taste is smooth and balanced, with light earthy and grassy notes from the passionflower. The sweetness of the linden flowers, along with the refreshing mint and spearmint, keeps the flavor light and easy to sip, making it a truly enjoyable experience.

After-taste

รส Finish ค่อนข้างเบาสบาย มีรสสมุนไพรแซมๆ ความ Earthy ค่อยๆ จางลงกลายเป็นรสหวานละมุน จิบเพลิน ดื่มง่าย

Cut

Canarias Serena Cut min

Canarias Serena has finely ground leaves, typical of the Uruguayan style, with a lot of tea dust. Most of it consists of leaves, with very few stems, and it’s hard to distinguish the herb blends mixed in. The tea leaves are pale in color. It’s recommended to use a high-quality bombilla to prevent clogging.

Summary

Canarias Serena is a "Compuesta" yerba mate, meaning it’s a carefully crafted blend with herbs. Its flavor is milder than the traditional Canarias. If you're looking to try something new beyond pure yerba mate, this one is definitely worth exploring.
