This caffeine-free blend makes an ideal evening tea, particularly during colder months when its warming properties are most appreciated.
Heritage of Winter Spice Blends
This blend draws inspiration from various cultural traditions. Rooibos has been cherished by South Africa's indigenous Khoisan people for centuries, while its warming spices reflect the ancient spice routes. Cardamom and cinnamon were once worth their weight in gold, traded along the Silk Road. The addition of rose petals connects to Persian tea traditions, where roses were prized in both ceremony and medicine.
During World War II, when traditional tea supplies were limited, rooibos gained international recognition as an alternative. Today, it remains a celebrated tea particularly during winter months when its warming properties are most valued.
