Rooibos is not a true tea, but a herb. The brew made from the dried Rooibos leaves is therefore a herbal infusion (known as a tisane) rather than a tea, but is widely known as Rooibos tea.

​

Rooibos has a distinctive colour, flavour and aroma, which differentiates it from most other teas. The flavour can be described as slightly sweet and fruity.

​

Rooibos is graded according to colour, flavour, and cut length.

​

Rooibos ages well and can be stored for long periods without any deterioration in quality, flavour and taste.

​

What is not well known is that Rooibos is produced in different regions of the Western Cape and a small area is  under cultivation in the Northern Cape, South Africa.

​

There are about 450 rooibos estates in South Africa. In total they produce about 18000 Mt of rooibos each year.

​

We offer rooibos sourced directly from selected estates that meet with quality standards of international markets.
