The rooibos is actually a herbal tea and thus a tea-like infusion drink because it is not made from the tea plant "Camellia Sinensis" like black or green tea. The Rooibos plant originally comes from the cedar mountains of Africa and is still grown there today. The rooibos first came to Europe around 1904 through a Russian tea merchant. Within a very short time, red bush tea enjoyed great popularity, so that the plant began to be cultivated and grown in 1930. In South Africa, rooibos tea is the national drink and with its uncomplicated nature and extraordinary taste, it inspires tea lovers all over the world. It contains no caffeine and only a few tannins, which is why it is also very popular for babies and toddlers. The taste of red bush tea is mild, slightly earthy and has a delicate sweetness. Whether with juicy fruits, exciting or hot spices, as well as sweet nuances of chocolate or vanilla - the red bush tea forms the perfect basis for a wide variety of tea blends.
