Salt Spring Tea Company Ltd

Rooibos comes from the plant Aspalathus linearis, rather than the Camellia plants that produce traditional teas. The name Rooibos comes from the African slang for the Dutch words for 'red bush'. Rooibos tea is a distinctive red colour and its taste is also unique with a very sweet and slightly nutty flavour. Its delicious taste and numerous healthful qualities has helped Rooibos become a popular tea all over the world. Rooibos has no caffeine and is low in tannin and various studies have shown that many health problems can be helped by drinking Rooibos tea.
