Origins of Rooibos: The Heart of South Africa
Rooibos, or “red bush”, is endemic and grows exclusively in the Cederberg mountain region of the Western Cape Province of South Africa. Its history is closely linked to the indigenous Khoisan people, who for centuries collected the leaves of this plant to prepare a medicinal and refreshing drink.
Interesting Fact
In the early 20th century, rooibos began to be actively cultivated, and today South Africa is the sole supplier of this unique beverage in the world. In the 1930s, Swedish naturalist and botanist Carl Thunberg was one of the first Europeans to document the use of rooibos by local inhabitants, which became the starting point for its global recognition.

To fully unlock the rich taste and aroma of your organic green rooibos, follow these simple recommendations:
- 🔥 Water temperature: Use fresh boiling water (100°C).
- 🥄 Quantity: 1-2 teaspoons of blend per 200 ml of water.
