Looking for Yerba Mate

Post new topic

Hi, can someone please direct me to an international foods store (preferably in Schöneberg) that sells mate in loose leaf form?

Thanks!

To update my own post for future Porteños/Argentines abroad in Berlin...

You can buy yerba mate, flan, dulce de leche, chimichuri and even alfajores at AQUI ESPAÑA, Kantstraße 34. It is a block from the Savignyplatz S-Bahn station.

I have attached a link to a photo of the Argentina foods section of Aqui España. The only thing not available here is Fernet Branca, but you can buy that in most larger grocery stores.

Another location for yerba mate in Kreuzberg is at Planufer 96, which apparently looks like a newspaper shop but has mate behind the counter.

¡Buen provecho!
