Organic Green Rooibos

Rooibos (Aspalathus linearis) is a versatile plant with a myriad of health-enhancing properties confirmed by research. Green rooibos is unfermented and grassier in flavor than the traditional version of the tea, while also boasting more antioxidants.

Rooibos contains a complex mix of many flavonoids (compounds widely found in plants that are known to have health benefits). Its composition is unique, because it contains aspalathin – to date only isolated from Aspalathus linearis (the botanical name for Rooibos).

Aspalathin is the major flavonoid of unfermented Rooibos. It decreases during fermentation, but is still a major flavonoid constituent of fermented Rooibos (the tea with the characteristic red-brown color and flavor). Aspalathin is important, not only because it is a novel compound, but also because it is the most active antioxidant in Rooibos.

Fine Cut: Green Rooibos Fine Cut consists of finely cut, freshly dried pieces of leaves and thin stems of Aspalathus linearis. Its green and mildly grassy taste makes it ideal for flavoring. With a slightly more astringent taste compared to Green Rooibos Loose Leaf, it also makes a refreshing drink when used unflavored.

Loose Leaf: Green Rooibos Loose Leaf consists of particles that are longer in cut length than Green Rooibos Fine Cut. Its appearance and soft green taste makes it ideal for mixing with dried pieces of fruit and flower petals.
