From Simpson & Vail

Rooibos “Tea”, called the “miracle tea”, is not from the Camellia Sinensis plant as are all true teas. Rooibos is processed from the leaf of the Aspalathus linearis and is cultivated on more than 600 farms in the vast Cederburg area of South Africa about two hundred miles north of Cape Town.

While the liquor looks and tastes very much like tea, this “tea” is 100% caffeine free. This beverage is deliciously refreshing with a rich amber color and a pure natural aroma. A hot, soothing cup of Rooibos is completely pure and natural, containing no additives, preservatives or colorants of any kind. It can be enjoyed hot or cold and with milk, lemon, sugar or honey.

I drank this one last night before bed. Didn’t feel like getting up to type in my notes on the desktop computer (an example of a time I really wish Steepster had a mobile version/app), so I had to wait until today. Anyway…

I had a rooibos tisane years ago that I loved and have been searching for one similar to that ever since. I have never been able to find it…until now. I loved this one!

The dried leaves were cut to the point of being fannings—just what I’d expect from a quality rooibos where you want as much leaf interaction with the water as possible when brewing.

The liquor brewed into a nice amber color. It had the familiar scent of a rooibos tisane—hard to describe, but recognizable. Besides the familiar rooibos flavor, there was an undertone of buckwheat. The flavor also had notes of plums and raisins. Overall, an excellent rooibos tisane that I will certainly add to my regular collection. It’s an excellent quality tisane which captures the essence of rooibos perfectly.

I brewed 6 grams of dried leaves in 12 ounces of boiling water for 5 minutes.
