Our organic Guayusa (gwhy-you-sa) herb is harvested from the Amazon rainforests of Ecuador. This caffeinated herb from the holly tree is the cousin of Yerba Mate, but has a much more mild and sweet flavor profile making it a more palatable option for many.

Guayusa is known for its gentle and balanced stimulant effects due to naturally occuring alkaloids (also found in green tea). These alkaloids are known to produce a sustainable release of caffeine without a crash. Guayusa leaves also contain polyphenols, which can help to promote a decrease in inflammation and support the immune system.

Do not use Guayusa if you have a heart condition or are sensitive to caffeine. Please consult your physician before use, especially if you are pregnant or nursing.

Excellence

"Helped to stop the coffee habit and replaced it with a finer way to enjoy caffein that hits my mind, not my adrenals."

Elizabeth C. (5/5)

Ground Guayusa? It's not coffee.

"Poor quality, terribly fine grind. Cannot recommend. To start this Guayusa is green, which is a good sign of freshness, but unfortunately, this company is grinding it up like it's coffee and that is unacceptable. It leads to slow moving and clogging tea straining, as well as a more bitter taste. Most of my bag is in powder form, which is similar to inexpensive Yerba Mate, but this is not drank in a gourd. Disappointed to say the least. Images show this Guayusa on left, others (larger leaf) on right."

Cornelius (1/5)

I like my Yerba Mate Better

"I tried Guayusa because I had never heard of it. I like to try new things. Now that I tried it, I like my Positively Tea Yerba Mate better."

James D. (3/5)

Roasted Guayusa

"I'm very pleased with my purchase, the tea is excellent and has a smooth well balanced flavor, I will buy it again."

Tom H. (5/5)

Getting fresh roasted guayusa leaf

"Getting fresh roasted guayusa leaf has been difficult lately. Luckily I found Fresh Roasted Coffee LLC and their roasted tea is exactly what I was hoping for."

James H. (5/5)

Smooth and the right amount of caffeine

"I have been drinking guayusa tea for the past 5 years and sometimes it can be hard to find, be inconsistent and sometimes having to ship from abroad can be tough. I am glad I found a U.S. supplier of Guayusa and Fresh Roasted Coffee's guayusa has been the smoothest I've had yet. Less bitter than others I've tried along with the right amount of caffeine for me to get my day going."

Nathan B. (5/5)

My Caffeine Go-To

"This is the perfect non-coffee go-to when I need a caffeine kick. The bags make it so easy and convenient- I love this stuff!"

Dayna H. (5/5)

Deliscuous subtle taste

"This tea is divine. It exceeded my expextation. I am glad ventured into something outside my tea routine purchases. It reminds me of white tea, but it is even better"

Guilherme L. (5/5)

Great
