Dragonfly Organic Fairtrade Rooibos 40 Bag

Product Description

Our Fairtrade organic rooibos is a refreshing tea that is grown by farmers in remote parts of the magnificent Cape coastal mountains of South Africa, where it has been enjoyed for centuries. It is still harvested by hand & cured naturally in the sun. We buy all our Dragonfly rooibos tea directly from the farmers. The Fairtrade certification guarantees that the smallest scale producers can compete at an advantage in the global markets. The price is set & remains fixed above normal market levels, allowing increased investment in farmers' communities. For the last 50 years these farms have produced h&-made Rooibos tea based on a real respect for & understanding of their environment. This pack will help them to reap the rewards of their hard work & to ensure the sustainability of the unique eco-system & their culture. Dragonfly Organic Fairtrade Rooibos Tea is still cured in the traditional way, as it was when Benjamin Ginsberg founded rooibos. The process takes place in the crisp air of the Cedarberg Mountains of South Africa's Cape. It requires great skill to know when the cure is at its peak; one sign is that it begins to give off a delicious sweet aroma that attracts wild bees. Dragonfly rooibos teas are naturally caffeine free, so they can be enjoyed at any time of day & are suitable for the whole family. Rooibos is rich in antioxidants & AHAs, long valued for fresh glowing skin, gently rehydrating & low in tannin.
