When I drink traditional, Rosamonte Especial is my favorite brand, but I don’t think its complex flavor carries well to cocido preparation. Curious what brands people would recommend?

My method for cocido:

  • 15 g yerba into a ceramic pot
  • 550g hot water [varies, but I’ve tried 175 up to 190 going into the kettle, without too much difference]
  • Sit for 7 minutes
  • Strain and pour.

I started doing this as a way to extend a bag of yerba, and ended up enjoying it more than I expected. I tried La Merced monte y campo, and it seemed to work fairly well in this tea/cocido method. What else may work good?
