African tea, a black tea with full-bodied flavors

The majority of African tea is produced mechanically using the crushing-tearing-curling method. The tea leaves are literally crushed and shredded. This type of tea is mainly intended for sale in tea bags. However, some plantations have chosen to produce quality teas using the orthodox method and choosing organic production. This results in true wonders for the palate like our Rwandan black tea, a single-origin tea produced in very small quantities in the heart of the Rukeri African garden. Another specialty of the African continent is red tea or rooibos. While it's not actually a tea, this infusion has become very successful and is now exported to all corners of the globe.

South African tea or rooibos

Another African specialty, rooibos or red tea is produced in the Cape mountains of South Africa. If rooibos isn't really a tea, it's because it comes from a type of broom plant and not from Camellia Sinensis. However, you'll often find this infusion under the generic term red tea due to its sublime reddish-orange color. It comes in the form of long needles with warm tones. Rooibos is a mild drink with a delicate nutty flavor. It can be enjoyed plain or with milk. African red tea is therefore an infusion that has nothing to do with tea. It contains no theine. It can be consumed throughout the day without any restrictions.

The benefits of African red tea, rooibos or honeybush

Red rooibos tea has numerous health benefits and is used by indigenous people to treat many ailments. Eczema, asthma, insomnia, or colic, there are many virtues attributed to it. It is mainly rich in polyphenols, which places it among antioxidants. It is also recommended to consume rooibos in case of digestive discomfort, as it has a relaxing and soothing effect. Its cousin, honeybush, also comes from a small bush similar to broom. It is also known to relieve stomach aches and is said to be a powerful protector of human DNA.
