Rooibos Green
Organic Infusion
A refreshing deviation from the classic caffeine-free Rooibos. Cultivated from organically grown plants, this green Rooibos displays a brighter hue and greener leaves due to its distinct fermentation process.
Rooibos Green offers a fresh and lively taste with subtle hints of tanginess, reminiscent of the gentle aroma of hay.
This unique flavour profile sets Rooibos Green apart, providing a refreshing twist for those seeking an alternative to traditional Rooibos infusions.
Green rooibos undergoes a distinct processing method that sets it apart from traditional red rooibos. Here’s an overview of the green rooibos processing:
- Harvesting: Green rooibos is harvested from the Aspalathus linearis plant, commonly found in South Africa. Skilled workers hand-pick the leaves and stems to ensure the highest quality.
- Fermentation: Unlike red rooibos, which undergoes a fermentation process that turns its leaves into a rich red colour, green rooibos is carefully processed to prevent fermentation. This preservation of natural enzymes and antioxidants gives green rooibos its characteristic bright green colour and fresher taste.
- Drying: After harvesting, the green rooibos leaves and stems are immediately dried to halt any fermentation processes. This step helps to lock in the natural flavours and nutrients of the leaves.
- Packaging: Once dried, the green rooibos is ready for packaging. It is often sold as loose leaf tea or in tea bags for convenient brewing.
- Overall, the processing of green rooibos involves careful harvesting, prevention of fermentation, and gentle drying to preserve its unique flavour profile and vibrant green colour.
