). As previously mentioned, coca is also commonly used as a general anaesthetic to alleviate various pain of headaches, muscle aches, arthritis, rheumatism, topical wounds and sores. Paper wraps are known to dry the delicate crushed coca inside the tea bags and the ink used can alter the flavor.

I look forward to drinking some tomorrow morning. Thank you, Mysterious Bolivia. The MacMate powdered coca leaf tea I purchased online from Reyes-Avila Mysterious Bolivia online store was sent extremely fast-I was delighted. I will definitely order again. What a treat. The powder blends well, and has a lovely grassy scent and flavor. Actually, it put me to sleep, but I enjoyed it very much.
Our filter paper is bleach free and recognizable by its beige-like color instead of the traditional bright white. MacMate deserves an obvious five stars rating, not only because it is our house brand but because this is a new, natural, sophisticated and eco-friendly coca tea. I have been drinking coca tea for 32 years and have tried them all and liked most. Enjoy MacMate Air Tight Bag Tea.Sincerely,Carol Blenda Reyes AvilaThe employees of the Reyes-Avila Corporation
The tea is only produced one time per week in Bolivia and only for the American market and as soon as it leaves the factory it is packed and sent by air cargo with a three to seven day transit time. After that it is mailed from Charlotte, NC to all of our customers worldwide. They have a zip lock system and can be recycled or reused.The best thing about MacMate is it freshness. The technology used is similar to that used to pack electronic components.
Specifically, we have obtained the finest selection of organic coca leaves which are free of pesticides and chemicals and arranged for them to be tested in US laboratories. Our Air Tight bags do not "breathe". Most boxed coca teas, Bolivian or Peruvian, are more or less the same as the techniques used for production are very similar with the same contents and weight per tea bag. We opted for the golden Air Tight bag (Double Saran Coated Polyester) to guarantee the absolute freshness of the product and discarded all paper wraps that can interfere with the coca tea flavor or over dry the delicate tea bags.
The coca leaves go through a slow dehydration process similar to that of slow roasting coffee beans to get a humidity free product to prevent bacteria or fungus from developing and then we crush them into large flakes instead of the powdery-like content used for most brands. But with MacMate Air Tight Bag, we tried to create an exquisite gourmet tea which is produced differently versus the traditional techniques used for 100 years in Bolivia (Windsor celebrates its 100 anniversary this year). Thus we have pioneered a top-notch process encompassing all steps in the processing of raw coca leaf to the final tea bag.
You have to use a few of them, but they work.Don't forget the bicarb soda.
Now if only my boyfriend didn't drink it all. I got the product I wanted in a nice time plus free samples of similar products. Thanks.
