Green Rooibos tea is a naturally caffeine-free herbal tea originating from South Africa. Richer in antioxidants and minerals than Red Rooibos, it contains several health benefits, including promoting heart health and helping manage diabetes and weight.
We get our Rooibos from the Cederberg Mountains, an area that is the only place Rooibos (Aspalathus linearis) can grow. It is organic and sustainably grown. This ancient tea goes back thousands (if not tens of thousands) of years and was used by the San and Khoi people as a medicinal herb for many ailments as well as skincare. Because Green Rooibos is unfermented, it retains more of minerals like calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc making it even more of a powerhouse. We carry long-cut vs shortcut (tea bag compatible) Rooibos because of the superior flavor, quality, and sustainability.
