The Tao of Tea Red Bush Chai, 100% Organic Rooibos Chai, 1-Pound

Red Bush Chai is a caffeine-free blend of South African Rooibos and uplifting spices. Rooibos (pronounced ‘Roy-Boss’), Afrikaans for “Red Bush”, is a member of the legume family of plants. It grows exclusively in the Cederberg Mountains and around Clanwilliam in South Africa. The Ancient San Bushmen are believed to be the earliest users of Rooibos. Large-scale cultivation and industrial processing of the plant began during the 1930s. The leaves of the Rooibos bush are harvested, bruised, finely chopped, moistened, and fermented in mounds. The result is a rich flavor and distinct, thin, red-colored leaves. We hand blend organic Rooibos with organic cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, and spearmint.
