New McMate "Private Reserve Caranavi" Premium Organic 100ct Reviews

• Macmate is it!

  As far as coca tea goes, this is it. Macmate has a subtle green color, an aromatic grassy scent and a refreshing herby flavor. I found it really has many of the attributes it is credited with, and the new resealable packaging helps to keep it fresher for longer than individual paper wraps. I have just received my second delivery, and I will order again, and again, and again...

  I have never tried coca tea before, but I have many severe bouts of depression. I can't take any medications for it. I drink this twice a day brewing for 10 minutes each, and I can't believe I have not had one bout of depression. This stuff is amazing! It tastes great alone, or what I do is put some raw sugar in it. Anyone suffering from depression should definitely try this!! Also I have chronic bloating from IBS; my stomach hasn't felt this good in ages. Thank you for this wonderful product!

  I personally wouldn't order from this company. Here's my story. Today is 29 Jan 08. I placed my order 8 Nov 2007. I ordered 2 bags of this tea. I received one bag after about a month. I contacted the seller by email and they said they had made a mistake and another bag would be shipped immediately. Anyhow, I waited another month and still no tea. I contacted them yet again and they claim a mistake was made! I'll say. There was no offer of a refund. Indeed communication seems to have ground to a halt for some inexpicable reason. Anyhow, today I called my bank and requested that half the amount I paid be refunded. So, that's my story. I think if you look at the comments page for the sellers page you will see other tales that make this more than just an anomaly. So, you've been warned.
  
  

• The best tasting coca teas available

  Of all the brands available, Macmate tastes really fresher than others. The color in the cup is light green, a good sign of freshness. The smell is also profund, fruty and crip. If you order directly from south american avoid Delisse brand coming mainly from Ecuador: horrible stuff!

• Rich and wonderfully fragrant
  By A16M0FT7MARNTE on 2007-10-15
  I have read a lot of good reviews about coca teas and Bolivia Stores, and finally got the chance to try one of their teas. I have to say that I'm not disappointed. This is a very good tea! When I opened the air-tight bag, a strong aroma of Andes rushed out.
  This is one of the more complex teas I have had the pleasure to taste and this deep and rich tea is one I would certainly recommend.
  
  
• Good Stuff
  By A2HIYGWUFRO6TC on 2008-01-08
  I originaly ordered this by mistake, but I decided to try it, and loved it, even the sample packs they sent with it were great, which I may order next time for tast, dont take me the wrong way this tasts good too. I just personaly liked the ciminon and lime and limon tast better. Personaly after trying this I would like to travel to boliva and try the real stuff instead of the export quaility stuff for the usa. dont get me wrong the export quality is good tea, its just if this tea is this good I wounder what the better tea is like that dosent have U.S.A. restrictions on it.

• MacMate ... a new experience!
  By A35GBC9DGU1NRO on 2008-05-17
  MacMate deserves an obvious five stars rating, not only because it is our house brand but because this is a new, natural, sophisticated and eco-friendly coca tea. Most boxed coca teas, Bolivian or Peruvian, are more or less the same as the techniques used for production are very similar with the same contents and weight per tea bag.
  I have been drinking coca tea for 32 years and have tried them all and liked most. But with MacMate Air Tight Bag, we tried to create an exquisite gourmet tea which is produced differently versus the traditional techniques used for 100 years in Bolivia (Windsor celebrates its 100 anniversary this year). Specifically, we have obtained the finest selection of organic coca leaves which are free of pesticides and chemicals and arranged for them to be tested in US laboratories. Thus we have pioneered a top-notch process encompassing all steps in the processing of raw coca leaf to the final tea bag. The coca leaves go through a slow dehydration process similar to that of slow roasting coffee beans to get a humidity free product to prevent bacteria or fungus from developing and then we crush them into large flakes instead of the powdery-like content used for most brands. Our filter paper is bleach free and recognizable by its beige-like color instead of the traditional bright white. We opted for the golden Air Tight bag (Double Saran Coated Polyester) to guarantee the absolute freshness of the product and discarded all paper wraps that can interfere with the coca tea flavor or over dry the delicate tea bags. Our Air Tight bags do not "breathe". The technology used is similar to that used to pack electronic components. They have a zip lock system and can be recycled or reused.
  The best thing about MacMate is it freshness. The tea is only produced one time per week in Bolivia and only for the American market and as soon as it leaves the factory it is packed and sent by air cargo with a three to seven day transit time. After that it is mailed from Charlotte, NC to all of our customers worldwide. Enjoy MacMate Air Tight Bag Tea!

• The Best Coca Tea ....Period!
  By A1EHLYZET9M5LA on 2007-10-20
  Este es el mejor mate de coca he tenido el placer de tomar, mi padre es Boliviano y anteriormente tomé, Mate de coca Windsor, Lupi e incluso Frute y Delisse del Peru. MacMate es una marca solo hecha para exportación y es casi imposible encontrarla en Bolivia. Dentro de cada bolsita de mate se puede ver pequeñas hojuelas de coca que le dan un sabor especial mientras que las otras marcas contienen coca casi en polvo.
  Generalmente uso el mate de coca para el dolor de estomago, indigestión y acidez estomacal o para reemplazar mi café de la mañana pero últimamente lo uso como suplemento dietético, una vez que la coca es macerada por una semana en el Aloe Vera, se genera una bebida que fácilmente quita el apetito y ayuda a bajar de peso saludablemente además que limpia el estomago.
