Rooibos  Melktert Tea - A South African Favorite

Rooibos loose leaf tea leaves come from the Aspalathus Linearis (red bush) plant grown in South Africa.  Rooibos is rich in antioxidants and has anti-inflammatory properties.  It is naturally caffeine-free and low in tannins (so they it has no bitterness).  Green Rooibos loose leaf tea leaves are steamed and dried to prevent oxidation/fermentation.  It has a mild smooth and grassy flavor similar to traditional green tea.  Our Green Rooibos loose leaf tea leaves are Organic, Halal and Kosher.

Melktert Story:  Melktert, means milk tart.  It is a South African dessert created by the Dutch settlers in the “Cape”/South Africa.  It is an African favorite sweet custard filled pastry made with milk, flour and eggs.  Rooibos Melktert Tea is an expression of this African favorite desert by having a similar smooth, soothing, creamy and naughty flavor.  Various spices and herbal flowers are used to achieve its flavor.  Rooibos Melktert Tea is a premium and unique flavor that you won’t find it elsewhere and makes a great choice when entertaining guests.

Flavor Profile:  A light, nutty, woody taste with a hint of sweetness, combined with a flavorful, handcrafted and well-balanced blend of flowers and pinch of stevia leaf, providing for a smooth, creaming creme brûlée floral flavor which is reminiscent of a milk tart.  You'll want to drink cup after cup...  No artificial flavors or preservatives.
