I just absolutely am in love with the aroma and subtle undertones of this delicious tea. Wholesome ingredients, no chemical additives, just beautiful herbs and tea. So good - it is a must try!!!!
I like the mild chocolate flavor
I wasn't sure if I would like this tea, but it's really good! Nice Mate tea. I would order this again.
This is my favorite tea at Republic of Tea. It has a light chocolate flavor and is fabulous afternoon caffeine source when I don’t want quite the same kick as coffee.
The chocolate really comes through. I like it with a splash of milk -- no need to sweeten. I also love the steady energy and focus it gives me.
I love the dry-toasty-grainy flavor of this tea! I also love the fact that it has a warm almond/vanilla flavor profile without being sweet!!!
This tea has been a family favorite for many years but we haven’t been able to source it since the local co-op stopped stocking it until recently when we thought to look online. Bought a pound and not disappointed at all. Same quality and rich flavor that we remember. Looking forward to sipping this in the mornings as autumn approaches.
The Mate Late Tea is awesome. The combination of Mate with cocoa, rooibos, almond, cactus flowers, sunflowers & bluebottle flowers is delicious. I've been a fan of Mate for years, and this is just the best. Every tea from The Republic is tops!
Something different. It does have coffee / hot cocoa vibes, and has a good amount of wake up energy, without being too sweet. Takes great with milk or without. Really like it on colder days.
Love this tea blend! Makes a great start to my day, no jitters, no bitter. Just a mellow warm flavor with a hint of energy.

I was surprised to find this one tastes smoky. I’ve had Yerba mate before but it’s never been smoky. If that’s up your alley, I think you’ll love this tea. It is quite flavorful.
I had never tried anything with yerba maté before, but this was delicious!
I purchased this item to help me drink less coffee.
Such a memorable and amazing flavor, especially with milk. The roasted mate, chocolate, and florals mix really well. I also love how aromatic it is. Often flavored teas smell better than they taste, but this one is equally matched. Also just the right amount of caffeine. Not an every day tea for me, but more crave-able than something just to save for special occasions.
To start with, I do not usually like herb teas. This one is full-flavored and has hints of many different flavors to keep your attention. It never ceases to make me smile and is as tasty in the middle of the day as it is at night. One of our real favorite teas.
I first discovered roasted maté blends at (now gone) Argo Tea in O'Hare airport of all places. I was immediately in love with the flavors. I was so ecstatic to discover RoT Maté Latte - it is even better. It's such a welcome change from coffee, is more complex and flavorful! It's like a hybrid black tea, espresso, and hot chocolate. And steamed milk makes it 🚀â¤ï¸
This has been the ONLY tea I drink in the morning for several years now. I used to be a strictly chai tea drinker, but then stumbled across this one. I'm a teacher and make myself a huge Yeti sized cup of Mate Latte to get me going and sip on throughout the morning. I prefer the taste of this tea when it steeps for quite a while and is very strong. I add raw honey and half and half to my Mate Latte and it is the most creamy, delicious tea ever. Cannot go a morning without it!
I've been drinking this blend for over 20 years. It's has such body, and a wonderfully mellow flavor. I've started combining it with other teas when they are not up to par, and it always improves them. Also incredible iced.
This is delicious and full-bodied by itself, but I also love doing a loose leaf combo with this tea and the ginger peach.
After 3 high stress weeks, my husband's coffee reliance needed to back off a bit, so I talked him into trying this tea. Though not a direct flavor or caffeine replacement for us coffee aficionados, this tea is delicious and relatively full favored. With the loose full leaf tea, I look forward to making our next pot a bit stronger and seeing if that redirects my husband from his usual coffee reliance.
I have been enjoying this new herbal blend. I generally do not like to add milk to my tea but I find a small dash of half and half in a mug is the perfect touch to make this a tea I look forward to in the evening. This one goes straight to the top of my favorite rooibos teas.
This is what I mainly drink when I don't want regular tea. I will sometimes add some ginger or extra cacao to it but it is fine by itself. I typically double the suggested amount as I like it strong.
I consider this tea a "treat" because it is just so good! I discovered it more than twenty years ago and it has been a staple in my tea pantry ever since.
I really love this tea, very smooth.
Great gift for my friend.
Love the rich, smooth tea that has a nice mouthfeel and chocolatey undertones.
It's the perfect tea for my cashew milk. The flavor is actually more subtle than I'd imagined it would be, so since the first cup I've been using two tea bags and it's just fine now. It's like having a low-cal, liquid dessert!
I have loved Mate Latte for a long time. It's aroma alone will make you want to have a cuppa. Cocoa, almonds, cactus, sunflower and bluebottle blossoms all added to mate and rooibos. It's a lovely, smooth afternoon drink that I prefer with milk and brewed quite strong.
As soon as I designate a favorite I find another great selection from ROT ! chocolate notes and vanilla almond milk you are having a soothing cup for sure!
Very creamy, soft tea, no harshness. I drink it with creamer as a coffee substitute.
I love Mate' Latte!! This soothing tea has layers of complexity with chocolate, smoke and citrus!!! In the summer I drink it as a cold brew in my french press. I love it!!
I steep Mate Latte loose leaf tea to my desired liking and find It's like a low-calorie dessert in a cup!
This has a wonderful flavor, with tastes that do not overwhelm but with a cocoa flavor. I've ordered several times before, and used to buy the leaf tea version at Whole Foods. I strongly recommend the product.
Rich smooth invigorating. My favorite tea of all time.
Drank this tea with steamed milk and was surprised at how wonderful and rich this tasted. Made one for my daughter then made one for my husband just to share the joy?
I had to stop drinking coffee due to stomach problems. This tea is so good that I don't even miss coffee any longer.
This is the closest replacement I've found to the long gone MateVana. It's missing the roasty undertone. Trying to find something to add in to round it out.
THIS! This is the tea I bought over 25 years ago at a health food store. I could never remember what it was, and I've been thinking about it ever since! ??
This is one of those "nothing like it" teas. My husband's favorite is Lapsang Souchon, but this has become his second fave. I like it, too. Strong notes of coffee and chocolate, delicious plain or with milk and sugar. Really glad I tried it, this is one we'll drink over and over again.
I don't typically drink herbal teas, usually drink black tea. I ordered this on-line and was delighted with the tea. It is rich, full-bodied, tastes a bit like coffee. It is great for a dessert cup, would be great with a splash of milk.
Delish flavors that mingle perfectly. I couldn't find it in stores around me so I went online and bought this and several other flavors to try out.
Absolutely LOVE this flavor and it has just the right kick! I've literally had a 1 lb bag for years and as long as you keep it tight, it lasts! Also, I have a KCup machine with a kcup I can fill with anything. I put this tea in the empty metal kcup and can successfully have 2 super flavorful cups! Amazing!
One of my favorites
For people who've never had this tea I tell them it has the slight acidity like coffee, the smoothness of tea, and a chocolate/nutty finish. You have to try it to understand. When brewed too strong it's not as pleasant, and is more like coffee. It's a nice iced tea too, again, much like iced coffee. When you add a splash of milk of your choice, the creamier texture makes it more reminiscent of hot chocolate. For a culinary delight, try steeping it in hot cream for an icecream recipe. The result is amazing and tastes very much like coffee icecream. I think the next time I'll swirl in some fudge revel before freezing it. It's certainly worth trying for those with icecream makers! You won't regret it.
This tea is my favorite (after Chai Green Full Leaf) and is such a joy to have. One must look at this beautiful tea in the canister, then enjoy the fragrance, and finally brew it. This tea and the Chai Green Full Leaf both have almonds as an ingredient and are unlike any other teas I have ever. Absolutely delightful!!
I can't do without this tea. It is so tasty and hits the spot!
This is such an awesome tea and makes me so happy when I drink it with a tiny bit of cream....as good as coffee.
This tea is amazing. First, when I opened the tin the first thing I said was "look how pretty!" It has this wonderful color combination of yellow, blue, and dark brown. Next, the smell is wonderful. It is deep, sweet yet musty and you can smell the chocolate and the nuts pretty well (at least I can). The taste of this tea is wonderful as well. It is rich, full and is very close to coffee. The aftertaste is not bitter at all and very pleasant. If you love black, full bodied and deep flavored teas, this one is beyond compare. It won't disappoint! I recommend this to everyone! One of the most satisfying teas I've ever had!
I bought my original cast because it was marked down at a health food store. If I would ha e known, I would have bought them all. This has been difficult to find d locally, so I have been ordering in bulk now for 2 years. I make a big pot every morning, put it in my thermal carafe and drink all day. Any leftovers, pour over ice in afternoon. Love it!
This is my Ultimate favorite tea! I share with all my friends and I haven't found anyone that doesn't like it! Chocolate tones come out, hard to explain the flavor. Watch out the tea bag is NOT the same as the loose leaf. I found that out the hard way
I have to say this is my all time favorite tea! I only buy bulk, now it comes by the cuppa! Very light but perfect tones of nutty chocolate. So flavorful in smell and taste. I am also impressed that it tastes like it smells. Everyone at my work agrees!
This teas is great brewed and mixed with a creamer. It's so good you want to have several cups, but be aware that it still contains caffeine.
I have been a fan of Yerba Mate Latte for years now. Each time I open my order of this tea, I delight at the smell of the wonderful fragrance. From my first sipping experience all those years ago to the last one I took this morning, I have never been disappointed with its rich, full bodied flavor. I am grateful to Republic of Tea for this delicious blend. Others have tried to duplicate it and failed. Only Republic of Tea can serve you Yerba Mate Latte. Don't go anywhere else.
This tea has unique hints of cocoa and nutty flavors. I bought it because I drink coffee and want an alternative for the later hours in the day. This is certainly nothing like coffee. But the caffeine content sneaks up on you which I love. I was not jittery at all which I can get from coffee. And the aromas are intriguing, and especially enhanced when paired with cream and sugar.
I've long loved this blend for the rich, creamy notes of butter, vanilla and caramel in a smoky, smooth base. This tea is wonderful after a meal or with breakfast and goes very nicely with a drop of almond or coconut milk. Not something I always reach for but something I want to always have on hand. With a little stevia it satisfies a sweets craving when you are trying to avoid dessert too - a definite bonus.
I'm not a coffee drinker at ALL, although mocha ice cream is yummy. Was looking for a great, non-coffee pick-me-up and was recommended this. I also added a large dollop of the Rare Hawaiian Organic White Honey for some sweetness, and I found myself IN LOVE! Definitely recommend for those lookin for a flavorful, chocolatey tea!
This one is amazing! When you open the tin, it's almost an over powering cocoa smell. Once you steep it, the aroma is about perfect. It tastes just like a medium strength black tea with a nice aroma and subtle flavor of cocoa.
I absolutely love this tea! It's by far my favorite, though I enjoy many ROT blends. I have a mug every morning with a splash of milk, and often another mug or two throughout the day. It has the depth of a black tea and a fabulous flavor.
this tea is so Deliciously warm and comforting, I look forward to it when I come home from work especially now that the weather is cold
I love this tea! Served up with a bit of honey and maybe a spash of almond milk, its a wonderful treat. On a cold day, I look forward to curling up with a good book and this tea. It has a wonderful subtle chocolate/coffee mocha like flavor!
One of my all-time favorites - when it's cold or rainy and you want to cuddle up with something comforting - this is the tea I go to. A delight to the senses...
My favorite tea! It has a nice aroma and with heavy cream & sugar it is a great substitute for coffee.
I am a coffee drinker who is trying to enjoy tea as much as I like coffee Yerba Mate Latte, was different,still trying to figure out how to steam milk.I had no direction on how to prepare this either. Because all I have to put it in ,I used two teaspoons. I shall try again before the weekend.
This is by far my favorite tea - and I drink a LOT of tea!
I am a coffee drinker who doesn't drink tea very often. I drink my coffee with creamer and had been drinking this tea for a while. I had been drinking it black, and it's fine that way, but when I put creamer in it, just to try it, I realized how close to coffee it is. I was pleasantly surprised - it's just like coffee mocha, but the mocha isn't overwhelming. If I had to drink coffee black, I'd switch to this tea as my exclusive morning drink. Right now, it's my evening alternative and I like it just as much as coffee.
Love this tea. Great flavor and body. So much more character than the bags. Would like a bit more caffeine, but that's ok...I just get to drink another cup or two :-)
I often start my day with this one! It is perfect for anyone who likes coffee; it is not a substitute for coffee, but has a flavor that coffee drinkers will like.
This is the best mate blend I have ever had! It is so delicious, sometimes it's hard to stop drinking it, making it perfect for marathon work sessions and all-nighters (as the name suggests)! Especially delicious with vanilla almond milk.
I love this tea. It actually does have a chocolaty flavor to it. I've added almond milk and sugar too, and is excellent.
As a coffee drinker who started getting serious about tea, as well, I ordered this one and love it. I disagree with anyone who suggests any coffee drinker looking to switch to tea would like this because sometimes, "close, but no cigar" is farthest away. This tea is not a coffee substitute, in my opinion. However, the coffee drinker's palette would very likely be most receptive to this tea, compared to other teas.
I discovered this tea when I was looking for a coffee substitute. This is the best flavor. It is rich and flavorful but not fake like the teas that have a flavor added to them. It is a special treat when you sweeten and add milk, but I have found I like it with nothing when I am dieting. It's like an indulgent treat but no calories!
