Origins of Rooibos: The Heart of South Africa
Rooibos, or ‘red bush’, is endemic to the Cederberg Mountains in the Western Cape Province of South Africa. It is here, in unique climatic conditions, that this amazing plant grows.
Since ancient times, local inhabitants, the Khoisan peoples, have used rooibos leaves to prepare a healing and invigorating drink. Interesting fact: Europeans first learned about rooibos in the 18th century thanks to botanist Carl Peter Thunberg, who described its use by the indigenous people. Since then, rooibos has gained worldwide popularity due to its unique taste and beneficial properties.
