rooibos

origin: africa south africa rooibos

variety: rooibos

ingredients: rooibos

caffeine: no-caffeine

price level: $$$$

Rooibos, colloquially known as 'Red Tea' (although not from the actual tea bush), is a naturally caffeine-free herbal plant that grows only in South Africa. A flavorful alternative for those seeking a stimulant free beverage, our Rooibos is fruity, sweet, rounded, mild and smooth with a refreshingly herbal texture. Very forgiving, it will not oversteep and blends well with other flavors such as nuts, herbs and fruits. Steep at 212°F for 5 minutes

      Not quite as sweet as honeybush. This tea from Adagio is great quality and perfect for sip before bedtime.

      This is a nice quality rooibos that has a woodsy/earthy taste with a bit of natural sweetness. Similar to black tea, but without any of the bitterness or astringency. I really like adding just a splash of cream to it for a comforting caffeine-free bedtime tea.

      A wonderful example of a standard rooibos tea. Delicious with a little milk and sugar

      Great simple rooibos. One of the best I've found - sweet but not cloying, warm and clean flavor.

      I love the bright color of this tea, even though the smell is a bit like medicine. Milk and a little honey really help make this tea its best.

      This is a hard tea to mess up. It’s very forgiving for newbie. It’s not the strongest flavor, but it’s good for a quiet afternoon reading.

      I've tried a bunch of rooibos and have tried to find cheaper alternatives, but this one is truly the best and worth it
