Blendmaster's Notes

"Native only to the mountainous Cederberg region of South Africa, Rooibos (or red tea) is naturally sweet and has a slightly nutty flavor with hints of cherry and toffee. We've infused pure Rooibos with scarlet red pomegranates and just the right amount of tart and fruity hibiscus to create a delightful caffeine-free blend that is uniquely thirst quenching both iced and hot."

-Charlie Baden, Celestial Seasonings Blendmaster since 1975

Rooibos: The Story of the Red Bush

The indigenous people of South Africa have enjoyed healthy Rooibos (or "red bush") tea for centuries. Like green tea, the needle-like leaves of the Rooibos plant contain potent antioxidants, but are naturally caffeine free and rich in calcium, zinc and other nutrients. We've infused authentic African Rooibos with succulent fruits and exotic spices to create our distinctive red tea blends. Discover this magical confluence of good health and great taste for yourself!
