Superior Taste
 
You are invited to savor the superior smooth taste of Our Premium Rooibos herbal tea. Here’s what our customers are saying:

“I have been drinking Nu-Tea’s Premium Rooibos since 2004. I was very pleased with the aroma and full-bodied taste. Because it is so low in tannin you can let this tea steep for a very long time without that acidic effect of other teas. Since becoming interested in Rooibos, I have tried other brands - but none of them compared in subtle aroma and flavour. With 2.5 grams of organic tea in every tea bag, Nu-Tea’s Premium Rooibos represents great value. It is my morning, afternoon and evening beverage of choice!”

Organic Certification
 
Our Premium Rooibos is certified by Ecocert International, Germany.

All products grown by certified organic family farmers, must meet the stringent standards of the Organic Crop Improvement Association International (OCIA). No synthetic fertilizers or toxic chemicals are used in the production, storage, or cleaning of these products.

Organic agriculture is an ecological production management system that promotes and enhances bio-diversity, biological cycles and soil biological activity. It is based on minimal use of off-farm inputs and on management practices that restore, maintain and enhance ecological harmony. "Organic" is a labeling term that denotes products produced under the authority of the Organic Foods Production Act. The principal guidelines for organic production are to use materials and practices that enhance the ecological balance of natural systems and that integrate the parts of the farming system into an ecological whole. The primary goal of organic agriculture is to optimize the health and productivity of interdependent communities of soil life, plants, animals and people.

Economical (each 2.5g tea bag = 3-5 cups)
 
Each 2.5g tea bag makes 3-5 cups or 1 teapot full. As the tea does not get bitter, you can steep it for many hours. The tea may be re-heated as the tea keeps its flavor and aroma for many hours.

Left-over tea can be enjoyed cold or used in your favorite dishes, as a rinse for your hair or skin, or to nourish your pets or house plants
 
Reduced Packaging
 
To reduce waste and packaging, Our Premium Rooibos tea bags are packaged in a sealed foil pouch of 20 tea bags (50g).
