Red Death Rooibos from Adagio Teas

Red Death Rooibos

Rooibos Tea by Adagio Teas

This tea is made from South African plant that grows near the Cape of Good Hope. It became increasingly popular during World War II due to the difficulty of shipping tea, and despite Kevin’s choice of moniker, in Japan it is known as Long Life Tea because it is believed to aid longevity. A cup of Red Death Rooibos will brew up a flavorful caffeine-free rich-red. Make it properly: use boiling water and steep for 7 minutes.

Just had to get the tea because of the name and it’s affiliation but after reading up online about all the goodness of red rooibos, i’m sold. Taste’s great looks like I’ll be adding yet another tea to my favorites rotation! You should try some.

I’e never brewed this tea for long enough, until today. What a difference that makes! It always used to taste bitter and grassy, but now it tastes wonderful. My new favourite tea!
