If you’re here, you already know that many consumers actively seek out the health halo botanical ingredients can provide when used in food and beverage applications.

We have decades of expertise in artisanal brewing, formulating, and kitting high-quality botanical extract concentrates that produce the unrivaled freshness and flavor profiles that meet—perhaps even exceed—consumer demand.

All-Natural & Full Flavor

Our closed-loop, single-pass, cold chain extraction process uses two ingredients: a botanical and purified water. That’s it.

It’s a process that captures the innate, true-to-source flavors, aromas, and colors to offer an exceptional sensory experience. And it means we yield high capacities with all the top notes and natural flavor—without any degradation in flavor. We can also customize concentration levels.

Our botanicals are naturally derived and certified clean label. Which simplifies packaging claims and maximizes transparency for your consumer.

The Growing Demand for Yerba Mate

Yerba mate (or “mate”) is a beverage brewed from leaves of the Ilex Paraguariensis holly tree found in rainforests of Paraguay, Argentina, and Brazil. Drinking mate is a common social bonding practice in Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, and southern Brazil among people of all ages, and continues to grow in popularity throughout North America as a “natural energy drink.” It contains 24 vitamins and minerals, 15 amino acids, abundant polyphenols and caffeine, while providing consumers with all-natural, crash-free energy.
