Rooibos Tea

The Smooth and Naturally Caffeine-Free Rooibos Tea

Rooibos tea, also known as redbush tea, is a naturally caffeine-free herbal tea from South Africa. Unlike traditional teas made from the Camellia sinensis plant, rooibos comes from the Aspalathus linearis shrub. It has a naturally sweet, nutty, and slightly earthy flavour, making it a perfect choice for any time of the day.

With its deep reddish-brown colour and rich, smooth taste, rooibos tea is a fantastic alternative to black tea. Whether you prefer loose leaf rooibos tea for a more authentic experience or the convenience of rooibos tea bags, this tea is a great way to enjoy a warming, naturally sweet brew.
