Exquisite Taste of Forest Berry Rooibos

We present to you a unique blend — Forest Berry Rooibos, which combines the natural sweetness of South African rooibos with vibrant notes of forest berries.

Taste and Aroma Profile

Base: Classic rooibos gives the drink a soft, slightly woody taste with natural sweetness.
Berry Accents: The addition of ripe strawberry pieces and delicate raspberry leaves enriches the bouquet, bringing juicy, slightly tart, and refreshing berry notes. You will feel the pleasant sweetness of strawberries, harmoniously complemented by the light tartness of raspberries.

Beneficial Properties

Rooibos is known for being caffeine-free, making it an ideal drink for any time of day. It is rich in antioxidants and trace elements that contribute to overall body strengthening, and it also does not contain tannins, which are characteristic of regular tea.

The Historical Legacy of Rooibos

Rooibos, or ‘red bush’, is endemic to the Cederberg Mountains region in the Western Cape Province of South Africa. It is here, in unique climatic conditions, that this amazing plant grows.

Traditions and Discovery

For centuries, the indigenous Khoisan people used rooibos as a medicinal drink. European settlers learned about its properties only in the 17th century. An interesting fact: attempts to cultivate rooibos outside its natural habitat have generally been unsuccessful, which underscores the uniqueness of its origin and terroir.

The Art of Brewing Forest Berry Rooibos

To unlock the full palette of taste and aroma, follow these simple recommendations:

Water: Use fresh, filtered water. 💧 Bring to a boil (95-100°C).
Proportions: For each cup (200 ml), take 1-2 teaspoons of rooibos. 🥄
