Honey bush is our #1 selling tea of 2022! This is a great tea for all ages, stages and time of day.
Honeybush (Cyclopia) is a flowering plant native to the Eastern Cape of South Africa. Named for the mildly sweet, honey-like aroma of its golden-colored blooms, honeybush has long been used as an ingredient in soothing herbal teas. It is closely related to rooibos, also known as red tea, which grows on the Western Cape of South Africa.
During harvest, farmworkers cut the leaves and stems from the honeybush shrub, leaving the roots in place to regrow during the next season. The harvested materials are then fermented and dried. Tea drinkers describe the taste of honeybush tea as full-bodied and lightly sweet, with floral and honey notes.
