Palais des Ths - Rooibos Des Vahins - Premium Gourmet Vanilla and Almond Flavored Caffeine-Free Rooibos Tea - 3.5oz Loose Leaf Metal Gift Tin

Description

Most commonly drunk as an infusion by the people of South Africa for the last 300 years, Rooibos has been cultivated and marketed since the 1930's. Today, it is the national drink of South Africa. It is grown from a small red bush in the Cederberg mountain of South Africa (125 miles north of Cape Town) at 1500-2000 ft. elevation. There are two varieties of Rooibos: green rooibos which is simply dried in the sun, and the more popular red tea that goes through an oxidation process which gives the plant its characteristic slightly sweet taste and red color. There are also different grades of rooibos, including the long cut grade which offers the most interesting experience in terms of fine flavors and powerful aromas. It is the most harmonious and it is the only grade Palais des Ths buys. Rooibos is a naturally caffeine-free tea packed with antioxidants, making for a delicious tea alternative for the caffeine sensitive.
