Explore unique terroir-driven flavours from the Cederberg region:
-
Cederberg Foothills - Originating from the Western ridge of the Olifants Valley at 650m, this Rooibos benefits from south-facing slopes and cooling afternoon breezes. Its sandy soils with sandstone and 'koffieklip' create a slower maturing leaf with nuanced character.
-
Cederberg Green - Unique green Rooibos is produced by steaming the leaves immediately after harvest, a method emulating traditional green tea techniques. This innovative process ensures maximum antioxidant retention and delivers the crispiest, freshest flavour.
-
Hidden Valley - From a secluded valley on the Eastern side of the Olifants Valley, under the iconic Sneeuberg mountain. At 710m, this terroir experiences cool nights and hot days, resulting in a distinctive flavour from its sandy, well-drained fields.
-
For the true connoisseur, the Loose Leaf Selection offers five distinct single origin teas for tasting and comparison: Cederberg Foothills, Cederberg Green, Hidden Valley, Wild Grown, and Wuppertal.
Product dimensions: 15.2cm x 7cm x 10cm.
Certifications: Halal certified by SANHA, South African National Halaal Authority
Brewing instructions: For best results, boil vigorously on a stove top kettle for 2-4 minutes. Alternatively, steep in a cup of freshly boiled water for 5-6 minutes. We suggest drinking this fine rooibos without milk or sugar… at least for your first sip!
