Bourbon Street Vanilla Rooibos The story of Rooibos starts around the turn of the century in South Africa s beautiful Cedarberg region. It was the locals of the area who first discovered that the fine needle like leaves of the wild Aspalathus Linearis plant
made a tasty aromatic tea. It was they who first harvested the plants,
chopped them with axes and bruised them with hammers leaving them to
ferment before drying in the sun. Rooibos is a herb that contains no
caffeine. Those that consume Rooibos have claimed that it has a soothing
effect on headaches, disturbed sleeping patterns and digestive
problems. Rooibos seeds are planted during February and March. They are tended for 18 months after which they are harvested. Cut Rooibos is bound and milled to a uniform length then bruised between rollers to trigger the fermentation process, which results in the characteristic flavor and sweet aroma. A cinnamon spice flavoring is added to give this Bourbon Street Vanilla Rooibos a wonderful vanilla character - terrific served hot and sensational served iced. |
