Rooibos









Rooibos is a decaf herbal tea which has become very popular with tea lovers who want a decaf option which is also high in antioxidants. The Rooibos plant is grown in South Africa and is often referred to as Redbush or African Red Tea depending on where you are purchasing your tea from.

Rooibos has a distinctive slightly sweet flavour and a rich aroma. Rooibos is available oxidised which is the most popular variety but is also available as a green or flavoured tea. This very versatile tea can be enjoyed by itself, with milk and with honey or sugar depending on what you would prefer.

Rooibos has been enjoyed by the local South African people as a hot beverage for over 30 years, however has only been produced commercially since the 1930's.
