Primarily rooibos, with Bourbon vanilla flavoring. Loose leaf in a 100g tin, organically grown. Mild, honey-sweet, vanilla-flavored – the classic caffeine-free evening infusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp id=\"speakable-definition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRooibos Vanilla\u003c\/strong\u003e by \u003cstrong\u003eKusmi Tea\u003c\/strong\u003e is not a tea in the botanical sense, but rather a herbal infusion made from the South African red bush (Aspalathus linearis). After harvesting, the needle-like leaves are chopped, fermented, and dried in the South African sun – this gives them their typical reddish-brown color and mild, slightly honey-sweet taste. In this Kusmi version, organic rooibos is refined with natural Bourbon vanilla flavoring. Naturally caffeine-free, low in tannins, never bitter even with long brewing times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 id=\"spk-sensorik\"\u003eReddish-brown infusion, mild-sweet with a warm vanilla scent\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs soon as you open the tin, a comforting aroma rises: the warm, slightly woody note of rooibos, enveloped in the round sweetness of Bourbon vanilla. The leaves are characteristically fine and needle-like, reddish-brown, almost cinnamon-colored – anyone who has seen rooibos before will recognize it immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the cup, Rooibos Vanilla presents itself in a radiant reddish-brown, reminiscent of amber or tea from a samovar. The first sip is mild and round, the familiar honey note of rooibos forms the foundation – good rooibos teas taste of honey, wood, spices, and caramel. Over this lies the vanilla: warm, creamy, with that velvety sweetness that distinguishes Bourbon vanilla from the rest. No bitterness, no tannins, no sharpness – just soft, mild warmth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 id=\"spk-zubereitung\"\u003eFor evening reading or as a caffeine-free nightcap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRooibos Vanilla\u003c\/strong\u003e is the ideal evening tea for anyone who wants to drink something warm late in the evening without jeopardizing their sleep. It pairs well with vanilla crescents and butter cookies during Advent, with a slice of apple pie with cream, with rice pudding and cinnamon, or with a quark dessert. It also cuts a fine figure at weekend brunch with panettone or pandoro, and in the colder months, it becomes a warming companion on Sunday afternoons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRooibos Vanilla tastes best on its own – the vanilla already brings sweet accents, so sugar is usually superfluous. A small splash of milk can transform the tea into a South African style, as it is often drunk in Cape Town.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou need about 2 tablespoons of rooibos per liter for a pot, steeped with 95°C hot water, for 5 to 6 minutes. One advantage over real tea: even if you steep the rooibos longer, it won't turn bitter – the plant contains no tannins that could over-extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin the Kusmi rooibos family, Rooibos Vanilla is the sweetest variety – it gets nuttier with \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/kusmi-tea-rooibos-mandel-tee-100g\"\u003eRooibos Almond\u003c\/a\u003e.

The indigenous Khoisan people were aware of the plant's healing powers long before it became internationally known.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is harvested from January to March, in the South African high summer: the branches are hand-cut, finely chopped, fermented, and then sun-dried. This process transforms the green needle leaves into the characteristic reddish-brown infusion – warm, mild, pure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe history of \u003cstrong\u003eKusmi Tea\u003c\/strong\u003e begins in 1867 in Saint Petersburg, where 21-year-old Pavel Mikhailovich Kousmichoff opened his own tea house. After the Russian Revolution, the family fled to Paris in 1917. In addition to classic black and green teas, the house now also offers a selection of caffeine-free alternatives such as rooibos and herbal infusions – for all those looking for caffeine-free enjoyment in the evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince 2017, almost all products have been organically grown, bottled at the manufactory in Le Havre.
