Description

Rooibos, colloquially known as Red Tea, is an herbal plant that grows in South Africa. Rooibos is a flavorful alternative to tea for those seeking to minimize caffeine intake. Our "Rooibos Mango" is a top-grade organic version, flavored with tropical mangos.

Story

Mangoes originated in Southeast Asia, where they had been cultivated for over 4,000 years. Since their discovery, mango groves have spread to many parts of the world, though mostly the tropical and sub-tropical climates. There are over 1,000 different varieties of the mango plant in existence, and India alone produces half of the world's supply. Mangoes are used widely in the culinary world, from sweet sticky rice, to delicate chutneys, to spicy and savory pickles. It's also an important part of non-food life in several cultures; both the fruit and leaves are used for decoration, religious ceremonies and weddings.

"One of my favorite rooibos teas. I add milk and honey to it, which cannot be beat. Great for relaxing and sipping on at night."

"Normally, I really enjoy rooibos teas. But with this one I'm just not fond of it. I'm reminded of the cough syrup my mom used to give me when I was sick as a child. Not so good when wanting a delicious tea."

"I'm not a huge fan of rooibos, but this was OK. I can drink it in a pinch. The mango flavor is actually really, really light."

"I was disappointed in this tea. It was suggested to me by adagio and since I enjoy the black tea version of the mango so much I though this would be a shoe in. It is not. It lacks the smoothness of the black tea version. Maybe it's just a flavor that does not mesh as well with the rooibos. I've had the Lemon Rooibos and found that to be better than the black tea version so it is not a case of just disliking the rooibos. I'd still drink it but with so many other choices it will not be a tea I order again. 2nd time Adagio has missed when sending me a suggestion like this. But I'm glad they keep trying."

"I really like this tea. It has a nice taste to it. My husband really likes it too. I'll probably try a few others before ordering this again but I can see this being something I like to have around."
