Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Rooibos, a pure, natural, caffeine-free herbal tea, rich in antioxidants, is made by Numi. Numi was founded by a brother/sister team for whom making tea is a labor of love.

Known as the 'Miracle Tea,' Rooibos is indigenous to the Cederberg mountain high desert region in the western Cape of South Africa; the only place in the world it's grown. This small, leguminous shrub has needle-like leaves, fine stems, and tiny yellow flowers. Sun-dried, Rooibos is processed like traditional teas.



Teasan, derived from the French, tisane, is Numi's term for a brewed herbal beverage with no tea leaves. Rooibos has no additives, preservatives or colourounts, has a light vanilla scent and yields a rich orange brew.



Rooibos' health benefits are numerous. In-vitro tests in Japan show that it exhibits anti-mutagenic properties and retards growth of certain tumors. Rooibos aids in relieving stomach and indigestive problems, benefits the management of allergies and exhibits anti-viral activity. Because Rooibos contains very little tannin, it doesn't impair iron and protein absorption in the body. It actually contains iron, potassium, and copper and supplements the daily intake of calcium, manganese, and fluoride. It also contains zinc, which helps promote healthy skin and enhances a healthy nervous system. And, of course, it does what a good cup of tea should do- soothe. Most importantly, Rooibos is refreshing, delicious, great in the morning, and lets you sleep well at night.
  • Contains 20 teabags.
  • Certified Organic and Kosher under the NFC.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful Rooibos---The "Miracle Tea"!
*****
Red Mellow Bush is a premium Numi tea. This herbal tea (caffeine-free) is certified organic and is kosher.

On the box, the manufacturer says it better than I ever could: "Grown in the high desert regions of the Cederberg Mountains, the shoots of Rooibos have been hand gathered by South Africans for generations. It is prepared like a traditional tea, undergoing meticulous drying (oxidation) and cutting. Organic Red Mellow Bush has an earthy vanilla taste and pleasing orange ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Rich, satisfying and healthy!
Rooibos is a healthy alternative to black teas. It is naturally caffeine-free and loaded with antioxidants--as much as green tea. This is a wonderfully tasty rooibos with a rich,almost caramel taste when drunk with cream. Brew for 20 minutes or more to make a stronger brew--it never gets bitter like black tea.

Numi gets points for their manufacturing process and packaging. The boxes containing their tea is made from 100% recycled paperboard from 100% post-consumer waste--they assert that ... Read More
