What is Rooibos tea?
Rooibos is a shrub exclusive to South Africa. Also known as Red Tea due to its color, Rooibos should not be confused with Red Pu Erh Tea (Camellia sinensis). Rooibos tea contains no caffeine and can therefore be consumed by anyone. It does not become bitter even if left to infuse for a long time. Our Rooibos has a high concentration of flavonoids, making it a powerful detox ingredient for those looking to lose weight. After training, Rooibos tea is an excellent ally in recovering from micro-injuries, while also helping with hydration and strengthening the immune system.

The species Aspalathus linearis is cultivated by 400 local producers exclusively in the beautiful mountainous region of Cederberg, South Africa. The term “linearis” derives from the long, pointed shape of Rooibos leaves. In this country, Rooibos tea is usually consumed with a slice of lemon, honey, or sugar. It is also common to reuse the same infusion and reheat it during the first 48 hours. Most exports go to the United States of America and Germany.

Curiosities:
The almond is the seed of the almond tree, a well-known tree from the Rosaceae family. This powerful oilseed is rich in minerals (magnesium, copper, phosphorus, iron, zinc, calcium, and manganese), vitamin E, vitamin B2, fiber, protein, and healthy fats.

Almonds develop easily in temperate climates, which explains their high production in countries such as Afghanistan, Australia, Italy, Spain, and Portugal. Although their origin is unknown, it is believed that almonds began to be consumed by sailors during the Silk Road period.
