Rooibos Tea
About this Collection
Rooibos, often called "red bush tea," comes from a plant native to South Africa's Cederberg mountains. All our rooibos is grown and certified organic at source, bringing you some of our most exotic and beloved teas and blends. Naturally caffeine free and rich in antioxidants, rooibos offers a smooth, slightly sweet base with none of the bitterness you might find in oversteeped true teas.
Unlike the Camellia sinensis plant that gives us black, green, and oolong teas, rooibos is an herbal tisane with a distinctive red amber color and gentle, earthy sweetness. It steeps beautifully on its own as Red Rooibos or Honeybush, but also serves as an exceptional canvas for creative blends. Sweet Desert Delight layers vanilla and spice. Kenya Chai delivers warming ginger and cinnamon. Rooibos Earl Grey reimagines the classic with bergamot and a naturally sweet finish.
Because rooibos contains no tannins, it never turns bitter no matter how long you steep it. This makes it forgiving for new tea drinkers and perfect for iced preparations. Try it hot for cozy comfort or cold brewed for a refreshing, slightly honeyed drink. Whether you choose loose leaf or our convenient silky sachets, rooibos invites you to relax and restore.
If you enjoy rooibos's naturally caffeine free, soothing qualities, explore our broader Herbal Tea collection with chamomile, mint, and hibiscus blends. For caffeinated options with similar smoothness, try White Tea or the gentle sweetness of Green Tea.
