Product Description
Tazo African Red Bush is a rich red infusion made with hibiscus flowers, sweet spices, and lemon. A traditional tea of the plains of Africa, it is slightly tart, mildly sweet and almost creamy. Excellent served hot or iced; enjoy this tisane year-round. Decaffeinated.Tazo was created for one purpose: to reinvent tea and the tea experience. Tazo's experienced and creative tea masters use only premium quality ingredients, yielding teas that are bold and extremely flavorful. In addition, Tazo uses 30% to 40% more tea per filterbag than other brands, filling even the largest cup with unique and distinctive flavors and aromas. Tazo also uses no "dust" (tiny tea leaf particles) to fill its filterbags - just broken leaf pieces and fannings. The name Tazo has roots in many civilizations, meaning "river of life" in the Romany Gypsy language and spoken as a toast to life by ancient Greeks. Tazo also means "fresh" in several Hindi dialects. In ancient Babylonia, Tazo was a rejuvenating elixir thought to have magical properties. In modern society, Tazo stands for an exotic array of teas with imaginative, inviting flavors. - 24 tea bags per carton.

Rooibos Tea and Spices. August 27, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Rooibos is Afrikaans for "red bush." Grown in South Africa's Cederburg Mountains and harvested during the summer, this tea acquires its unique red color as a result of fermentation (in mounds) and oxidization, when it is spread out to dry in the sunlight; naturally it is green.
Rooibos is known for its health benefits stemming from its rich content in vitamins, antioxidants, flavanoids and minerals (inter alia, magnesium, calcium, iron, copper, zinc, potassium, fluoride, manganese and alpha-hydroxy) and has a long tradition of medicinal use among the local Native population; among other things, it is known to help cure asthma, hay fever and other allergies, acne, eczema, colics, indigestion, insomnia, and nervous tension. Containing very few tannins and no caffeine, rooibos has a distinctive aroma and amber color.
This tea blends well with various spices and condiments; my favorite mixture is a delicious loose leaf blend sold by my local tea store, which features orange peel, cinnamon, grated coconut, finely minced chili and red pepper. For a more commercial alternative, though, Tazo's Red Bush tea is a great choice as well: a rich, exquisite blend of rooibos, hibiscus, orange peel, rosemary, several lemon ingredients (lemon myrtle, verbena and balm), as well as a number of sweet spices. Enjoy!
