Ethnic drink Honey Rooibos is prepared by brewing dry sprouts of Rooibos bush that grows in South Africa. In the composition of Honey Rooibos natural sweet flavour of Honey Rooibos is underlined with honey notes.

On the Cape of Good Hope in the valley of Cedarberg Mountains grow fluffy red-yellow bushes with long red branches. The indigenous people – Bushmen - who speak Afrikaans call these bushes “Rooibos” which means “red bush”. They compare this plant with gigantic porcupine that lay down for a nap under the scorching African sun. Bushmen harvest the needle-like leaves and brew them. The drink is famous for its healing properties and is often called Elixir of Bushmen.
We do not know the exact time when Rooibos leaves were first infused by Bushmen but we do know the man who rediscovered this drink to the world. His name was Benjamin Ginsberg and he came from Odessa. In the beginning of the 20th century as fate willed he came to South Africa. This was the place where he took out his lucky ticket - in several years first ships with Elixir of Bushmen sold by enterprising Ginsberg arrived in European ports.
In the Old World the useful properties of the red bush were not only duly appreciated but also linked to scientifically proved facts. Today Roiboos plantations occupy the whole Cedarberg valley and more than half of the crop is exported, mainly to Japan, Europe, Australia and USA. Scientific research has proved that Roiboos is abundant in natural antioxidants, contains many vitamins and microelements essential for human organism and is caffeine free. It has soothing effect and slows down aging.
And with a delicate honey note – like in Greenfield Honey Roiboos – the drink has an especially pleasant flavour.
