Bio Rooibos with front and back label 100 g - white matte

Rooibos Powder 100 g – Naturally Caffeine-Free South African Red Bush

Rooibos (Aspalathus linearis), known as the red bush, is a shrub grown exclusively in South Africa. Unlike black or green tea it contains no caffeine at all, which makes it suitable for any time of day. This is not cut leaf tea but finely milled powder – it blends fully into the drink or the recipe and needs no straining.

✔ Milled Powder, Not Cut Leaf

Rooibos in powder form works exactly like matcha: the whole leaf is consumed and nothing stays behind in a strainer. The powder blends smoothly into milk, plant drinks, doughs, and creams and gives them a warm reddish-brown tone. For production this means no infusing, no waste, and precise dosing.

✔ Ingredients

100% organic rooibos (Aspalathus linearis), finely milled – South Africa. Nothing else: no additives, no flavourings, no sweeteners.

✔ Flavour Profile

• Aroma: soft and warm, with notes of caramel and nuts.
• Taste: naturally sweet with a mild hint of tartness, no bitterness.
• Colour: warm reddish-brown.
• Texture: fine powder.

✔ Naturally Caffeine-Free

Rooibos contains no caffeine – not through decaffeination, but by nature. That opens up the part of the market classic tea and matcha cannot serve: evening drinks, ranges for children, and customers who avoid stimulants. Alongside matcha in a portfolio it is the obvious complement.

✔ Preparation

Put roughly 2 g of powder (one level teaspoon) into a shaker, add about 300 ml of water and shake. Hot preparation: use water up to 70 °C. Cold preparation: cold water and ice cubes – rooibos is genuinely refreshing that way. It can be sweetened with fruit juice or syrup as required.

✔ Storage

Store in a cool, dry place and protect from direct sunlight. Keep the packaging closed after opening and protect it from moisture and strong odours.

✔ Recommendation for B2B Customers

The perfect choice for private label projects, retailers, and distributors who want to offer a caffeine-free product under their own branding. Rooibos complements a matcha range instead of competing with it – it serves the customers who avoid caffeine, and the evening and children's occasions.
