Red African herbal tea Rooibos Superior long cut
Rooibos is a unique South African herbal tea that is caffeine-free and boasts numerous beneficial properties. There are two main types of rooibos available on the market: green (lightly fermented) and red (fully fermented). Fully fermented red rooibos has a deeper, richer flavor and a more intense aroma. The Tea Line store offers two types of red rooibos: "Premium Category" and "Superior Long-Framed." The difference between Superior Long-Cut Rooibos and Premium Rooibos lies in several key aspects:
Cutting size and shape
- Superior long cut - consists of lower, whole needle-like leaves, which makes it more aromatic and delicate in taste.
- Premium Rooibos is typically cut into smaller pieces, which allows for faster brewing and a richer flavor.
Quality of raw materials
- Superior long cut - only the highest quality and whole leaves without dust and small particles are selected.
- Rooibos "Premium Category" - also has high quality, but may retain a small amount of smaller particles.
Taste and aroma
- The long cut superior is softer, with more protected honey and nut borders.
- Rooibos "Premium Category" is rich, with pronounced caramel and woody notes.
Brewing
- Super Long Steep brews longer (about 7-10 minutes) but retains a subtle flavor.
- Premium Rooibos brews faster (5-7 minutes) and produces a stronger infusion.
Origin and characteristics
Red rooibos is extracted from the leaves and stems of the Aspalathus linearis plant, which grows exclusively in the Cederberg Mountains of South Africa. This region is renowned for its unique climate, which creates ideal conditions for the plant's growth. Clean air, fertile soil, and a moderate climate make rooibos particularly valuable and beneficial. High-quality rooibos is hand-harvested and carefully fermented, which gives the leaves their characteristic red-brown hue and a distinct caramel-honey aroma.
