Description
Rugger’s Rooibos (pronounced “Roy-boss”, and sometimes referred to as “red tea”) is one of our favorite botanicals. Rooibos tea is one of the most antioxidant-rich beverages in the world, and the cup has a sweet, vanilla-tinged flavor. The liquor brews up dark red, with a deep, rich body unlike any other herbal tea we know. The experience is earthy and deeply calming.
Rooibos is endemic to western South Africa. Just north of Cape Town is the region of Cederberg, where you’ll find rooibos growing wild in the mountains.
If you find yourself in Cape Town, you might stumble upon a Springboks rugby match. The Springboks were the 2019 Rugby World Cup champions, defeating England 32-12 in Japan! You’ll have plenty of opportunity to drink a cup of “red tea”. You might even find yourself perched on top of Table Mountain, the Southern Ocean in view, soaking in the sights of the city with a cup of rooibos in hand. Or enjoy our Rugger’s Rooibos in the comfort of your own home. Cheers!

I have always like Rooibos tea but never knew how big and flavorful it could it be!
Hi Dillon, if you like Rooibos, you might like Honeybush. They closely related, though Honeybush might be a tad spicier, LMTC
