What is Green Rooibos Tea! Rooibos (Roy-boss) is the wonder herb that only grows in South Africa. It has been enjoyed since the turn of the century, when local bushmen discovered that fermenting and sun-drying the needle-like leaves of this wild mountain plant produced a tasty and fortifying red tea. Today, modern production processes provide the option of lightly steaming the just harvested plant below 115 degrees F to halt the oxidation process. The unoxidized, green version of red tea is the raw base of this green rooibos tea. Twice the Antioxidant! Halting the oxidation process preserves the plants natural enzymes. In turn, Green Rooibos Tea has 80 mg total phenolic compared to 32 mg in green tea! More good news - Green Rooibos Tea has no caffeine or calories so you can sip all day long.
