Wild Harvest Honeybush

Organic Herbal Tisane

Available Spring 2011

Long known in South Africa for its health benefits, this fragrant herbal tea named after its honey scented flowers is similar to the better known Rooibos but has a sweeter flavour. Gathered growing wild in the mountains of Langkloof in the Eastern Cape, these naturally organic leaves yield a fresh, mild, caffeine-free infusion with gorgeous honey/peppery undertones.

"Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the world earth revolves – slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future"

Tricky to cultivate, most Honeybush is still gathered wild on steep, south-facing mountain slopes. Because heavy-handed harvesting can kill the shrubs, we source from a farmer who ensures a sustainable way of cutting the wild plants, thus preserving the delicate mountain ecology. This herb brews a clear red-gold infusion with an intriguingly spicy aroma, fruity nuances and a soothing honeyed sweetness that lingers satisfyingly on the tongue. A 95 gram pack of Honeybush will produce 95 cups of tea, using 3 grams of tea per cup. The tea can be infused three times.
