Rooibos

A favorite caffeine-free and healthy alternative to tea, this full-bodied infusion boasts rich flavors of vanilla, honey and spice, which are matched by its deep, sweet aroma. Unlike many herbals, it can blend well with milk—try our herbal take on Crimson Chai.

Rooibos is grown in South Africa, and was first cultivated by the indigenous Khoisan population. The leaves traditionally undergo oxidation during processing, which deepens their color; the name means "red bush" in Afrikaans.

Also available in teabags.
