Everything you need
to know about mate.
You just scanned a Branch 6:26 product. Here's the story behind what's in your hands — and why it's unlike anything else you've tried.
Yerba mate is a naturally caffeinated leaf, traditionally brewed in a gourd and sipped through a metal straw called a bombilla. For centuries it has fueled gauchos, families and friends across South America.
In Argentina, mate isn't just a drink — it's a daily ritual of focus and connection, passed between people in an unhurried rhythm.
Branch 6:26 sources exclusively from a 4th-generation family farm in Misiones, Argentina — where the leaf is grown, harvested and air-dried the traditional way.
"Branch 6:26 is sourced from a single 4th-generation family farm in Misiones, Argentina — air-dried, never smoked, single ingredient."

How to Make Yerba Mate
Five simple steps — and a lifetime of refills.
Fill your mate cup ⅔ with loose leaf yerba mate.
Tilt the cup so the mate rests at an angle.
Insert the bombilla (metal straw) into the empty side.
Pour hot water at 75–80°C (165–175°F) — never boiling.
Sip slowly and refill with warm water up to 20+ times.
The first few sips are the strongest. Let it mellow as you refill — this is part of the ritual.
Three Moments. One Practice.
Morning
Replace your coffee. Ease in without the spike or crash.
Afternoon
Sustained focus when energy dips. No crash.
Evening
Passed between friends in Argentina — social and clean.
