Description
If you are looking for a caffeine-free hot beverage alternative, one taste of this vibrant red herbal infusion will have you hooked. Rooibos leaves have a malty sweetness reminiscent of black tea, but also a variety of their own unique accents, with strawberry, honey, and vanilla notes, as well as earthy and tobacco undertones.
Mild and forgiving, it is impossible to over-steep rooibos, and it lends itself well to flavored blends, providing a neutral body which is easy to build upon – it is excellent with sugar, honey, milk, nut milks, fruits, herbs and spices.
Rooibos, or “red bush,” is native to the western coast of South Africa, and it has been harvested from the wild for millennia. Only recently has it been cultivated, but with a high reputation as a cheap and delicious caffeine-free tea alternative, in less than 100 years its popularity has spread to every continent. Rooibos is frequently used to substitute tea in herbal blends. The tiny leaves have a malty sweetness reminiscent of black tea, but also a variety of their own unique accents, with strawberry, honey, and vanilla notes, as well as earthy and tobacco undertones.
We are very happy to have found this premium variety, organic from South Africa, with particularly strong vanilla notes and a surprising sweetness – its really lovely! Check out this blog article to see all our Rooibos Blends!
