South African Heritage: The Story of Rooibos

Rooibos tea holds a special place in South African culture, with roots tracing back centuries to the indigenous Khoisan people of the Cederberg region. These native inhabitants discovered that the needle-like leaves of the Aspalathus linearis plant could be fermented to create a delicious, aromatic beverage. The traditional processing method, which involves cutting, bruising, and oxidizing the leaves, was perfected over generations.

In the early 20th century, Russian immigrant Benjamin Ginsberg recognized the commercial potential of rooibos and began marketing it as a Mountain Tea. This marked the beginning of rooibos' journey from a local tradition to a globally appreciated beverage. Today, rooibos remains a protected geographic indication, meaning authentic rooibos can only come from its native Cederberg region, where specific soil conditions and climate create the perfect environment for this unique plant.
