Rooibos originates from a shrub called Aspalathus linearis, which grows in South Africa. The fine, needle-like leaves of the plant are traditionally fermented, giving the beverage its beautiful reddish color and gently full-bodied flavor.
Rooibos is naturally completely caffeine-free, making it perfect for evenings, for children, and for anyone who wishes to avoid caffeine without compromising on taste or atmosphere. It is also gentle on the stomach and contains antioxidants that support well-being and a natural balance in the body.
In terms of flavor, Rooibos is smooth and slightly sweet, pairing wonderfully with honey, berries, vanilla, and creamy notes.
In Nordqvist’s selection, you’ll find delicious flavored Rooibos teas available as both tea bags and loose leaf—perfect to enjoy alone or together, at any time of day.
