This is a Peruvian teabag, something I must have received from a friend who´d been there (My holidays there are too far back, the last one in 2010). I remember from our first trip to Perú that we chewed coca leaves to help us overcome possible problems related to the high altitude in the Andes, whereas the coca leaf tea (or mate de coca, cf mate used in Argentina por instance) was a herbal tea all hotels offered together with coffee at breakfast. Even then I thought chewing the leaves had an effect, while the tea was rather flavourless. Having a cup of this tea at home confirms this even more, if that´s at all possible ;-)
