I have tried youpon tea at a cafe before and even purchased it here: https://lostpinesyaupontea.com. I like Yerba Mate quite well, so I wouldn’t say youpon in better, but I would say I like it equally well. It’s definitely worth a try.

These people are great - I have ordered a bunch of yaupon from them, both light and dark. The light roast is more of a green tea flavor, while the dark roast is closer to a black tea or even coffee. The best part about yaupon is the buzz, though. It's a strong boost like coffee but without the jitters and crash that coffee can cause. It's a more lucid, feel-good stimulant with a flavor that's hard to describe. Much less bitter than coffee or even tea, it has an earthy, smokey taste that resembles yerba mate a little bit but resists easy classification. Highly recommended.

I ordered some as well. I bet they'll wonder what caused a spike in orders today.

What is the net weight of a package? (And why isn't it on the packaging?)

It is on the actual packaging. But, it's not on the photo of the packaging on our website because we used one photo and then you can select whatever size you want. All the packages look exactly the same except the variation in size. We need to update the photos. There are 1oz, 2oz, 4oz and 8oz loose leaf. The tea bags are 20 tea bags and it's 1oz of yaupon.

Ordered, thanks!
Do you prefer the light or the dark roast?

How does it taste?

It tastes a lot like an earthy, grassy tea (Camellia sinensis). It's pretty good.
