Fair Trade, Organic Rooibos & Vanilla Tea

Box of 20 fair trade, organic and caffeine-free teabags.

This tea is the result of fermenting the needle-like leaves of this native South African bush. Organic rooibos is abundantly flavorful and full-bodied with a sweet earthy aroma. This blend is made more luxuriant with the addition of tropical, organic vanilla. Rich in minerals and antioxidants.

This fair trade certified organic tea meets the highest standards of quality and social and environmental responsibility. Your cuppas directly make a difference to the lives of tea plantation workers.

Rooibos is Afrikaans for 'red bush' and is grown only in the Western Cape Province of South Africa. Rooibos tea has been drunk in South Africa for many generations but is becoming increasingly popular internationally due to its sweet taste, and its health benefits. It is rich in antioxidants, low in tannins and caffeine free.

The workers with the Bergandal Boerdery collective who harvest native Rooibos in the perfect growing conditions of South Africa use the funds received from Fair Trade premiums to guarantee the sustainability of their existing community programs. Classes currently encompass HIV/AIDS education, first aid treatment, and life skills training for women.
