Organic Rooibos & Honeybush Collection

Discover the Gentle Goodness of Organic Rooibos and Honeybush Teas

Welcome to a world of naturally sweet, caffeine-free indulgence with our exquisite Organic Rooibos and Honeybush teas. Sourced from the pristine landscapes of South Africa, these unique brews offer a delightful taste experience along with numerous health benefits, making them the perfect addition to your daily routine.

Rooibos: The "Red Bush" Elixir 

Hailing exclusively from the Cederberg Mountains of South Africa's Western Cape, Rooibos (pronounced "ROY-boss") translates to "red bush" in Afrikaans, reflecting its distinctive reddish-brown hue developed during oxidation. This fine, needle-like plant, 'Aspalathus linearis', has been cherished by indigenous communities for centuries, known for its soothing properties and delicious taste.

A Taste of Sunshine:

Our Organic Rooibos boasts a naturally sweet, slightly nutty, and earthy flavour profile, often described as having hints of vanilla and honey. It's wonderfully smooth with no bitterness, making it enjoyable on its own or with a splash of milk and a touch of sweetener.

Health Benefits Galore:

Caffeine-Free & Calming: Perfect for any time of day, Rooibos is naturally caffeine-free, promoting relaxation and supporting restful sleep.

Rich in Antioxidants: Packed with powerful antioxidants like aspalathin and nothofagin, Rooibos helps combat free radicals, protecting your cells from damage and supporting overall well-being.

Supports Digestion: Its antispasmodic properties can help soothe digestive discomfort and promote a healthy gut.

Bone Health: Contains minerals like calcium, manganese, and fluoride, contributing to strong bones and teeth.

Skin & Hair Benefits: The antioxidants and alpha hydroxy acids in Rooibos can contribute to healthy, glowing skin and strong hair.

Interesting Facts:

• Rooibos is not a true tea (*Camellia sinensis*) but rather a herbal infusion.
• Traditionally, Rooibos was harvested by hand and processed using methods passed down through generations.
• It's a surprisingly versatile ingredient, used not only as a beverage but also in cooking, baking, and even skincare products.
  
  

Honeybush: Nature's Sweet Embrace 

Sharing its South African heritage with Rooibos, Honeybush (*Cyclopia intermedia*) is another remarkable herbal tea that offers a naturally sweet and aromatic experience. Found in the coastal and mountainous regions of the Eastern and Western Cape, Honeybush derives its name from the delightful honey-like aroma of its flowers, which bloom in vibrant yellow.

A Nectarous Brew:

Our Organic Honeybush offers a wonderfully sweet and floral flavour, reminiscent of honey and apricot, with a slightly thicker body than Rooibos. It is naturally smooth and lacks any astringency.

Wellness in Every Sip:

- Naturally Sweet & Low Calorie: Honeybush's natural sweetness means you often do not need to add sugar, making it a great low-calorie alternative to sugary drinks.

- Caffeine-Free & Soothing: Like Rooibos, Honeybush is naturally caffeine-free, promoting relaxation and a sense of calm.

- Antioxidant Powerhouse: It contains a range of beneficial compounds, including mangiferin, which contributes to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

- Digestive Aid: Traditionally used to alleviate coughs and digestive issues, Honeybush can help soothe the stomach.

- Supports Respiratory Health: Its gentle nature and potential anti-inflammatory effects can be beneficial for the respiratory system.

Interesting Facts:

• There are several species of Honeybush, each with slightly different flavour profiles, but Cyclopia intermedia is the most commonly used for tea.
• Honeybush plants are known for their resilience, thriving in harsh, nutrient-poor soils.
• The sweet aroma of Honeybush flowers attracts bees, playing an important role in the local ecosystem.
