Yerba Mate Piporé – Authentic Argentine Tradition with a Legendary Origin (500g)

Discover the rich history and tradition behind Yerba Mate Piporé, a brand that embodies centuries of cultural heritage and artisanal expertise from the heart of Misiones, Argentina. Produced by Productores de Yerba Mate de Santo Pipó SCL, a cooperative founded in 1930 by Swiss immigrants, Piporé has grown to become one of Argentina’s most respected yerba mate brands and a leading global exporter.

The story of Piporé is deeply rooted in Guarani legend. According to tradition, a Guarani chieftain named Santos left his footprints and handprints by a stream while escaping a Brazilian invasion. Seeking refuge, he found safety with Jesuit missionaries who, amazed by his survival, baptised him with the name "Santo." The name Piporé stems from the Guarani words "Pi" (foot), "Po" (hand), and "Re" (footprints), honouring the miraculous journey of the chieftain.
