Just got this in from ma-tea.com. Wow.

It's by far the best brand I've tried. Super-smooth and tasty.

it's a lateener favorite, that's for sure. Nobleza Gaucha is really good too. You use the gourd and straw?

Yes. Canarias is some good stuff. "Sin palo" right. A big mess of that can make your hair stand on end.

I noticed a mid-eastern place carries Malta cheap, so I'm going pick up a kilo.

I like Union as well.

Usually only on the weekends, while I'm doing whatever it is I'm doing in the morning. During the week I pre-brew a larger batch in a press and heat it up for a travel cup every morning.

Gourd + bombilla = hellaciously strong brew.
