My wife suffers from high blood pressure and not wanting to get hooked on blood pressure medicine, sought out natural ways to control her blood pressure. A collegue of her's recommended rooibos and thats how we started drinking it. Its expensive to buy by the teabag and this product was the best value for money we could find. Love the taste, no additives and best of all, my wife's blood pressure has come come down noticably(she's been drinking a large cup daily for the last six months).

This is a great tea. I highly recommend all Davidson's teas and I am really glad I discovered them for myself and my family- chamomile, rooibos, hibiscus, green teas- the price is great and you get the organic tea of high quality & quantity.


Rooibos tea, like green and black tea, has been found to be rich in anti-oxidants and flavonoids. In fact, Rooibos tea has been found to have as much as 50 times more SOD than Green Tea. It also has other anti-oxidants not found in other teas.

The effect of free radicals (a by-product of normal cell function) in the process of aging and declining of the immune system is limited by the anti-oxidants in Rooibos tea.

Rooibos tea is completely pure and natural, as it contains no additives, preservatives or colorants. It is a soothing drink for people on a calorie-restricted diet, without adding kilojoules.
Rooibos tea is also strongly recommended for people suffering from irritability, headaches, disturbed sleeping patterns, insomnia, nervous tension, mild depression or hypertension. Rooibos tea contains no caffeine and therefore has a soothing effect on the central nervous system. Rooibos tea is also low in tannin and therefore does not have a negative effect on the absorption of iron and proteins into the body.

Rooibos tea has anti-spasmodic properties, thus relieving stomach cramps and colic in infants. Rooibos tea also relieves stomach and indigestive problems like nausea, vomiting, heartburn, stomach ulcers and constipation.

Furthermore, rooibos tea also supplements the daily amounts of calcium, manganese and especially fluoride, needed for the development of strong teeth and bones. It contains zinc and alpha-hydroxy acid, which promotes healthy skin and magnesium which is necessary for a healthy nervous system.

Rooibos tea has a soothing effect on the skin, relieving itching and certain skin irritations like eczema, nappy rash and acne when directly applied to the affected area.

I have tried many various Rooibos tea and this tastes one of the best for me. It is very good value for the amount, I've been drinking one bag for almost 6 month now. Highly recommended for Rooibos tea lovers!

I have been drinking Rooibos now for sometime and have become quite fond of it both for its taste and health benefits. This is an excellent product at a great price. I usually brew it at night and take it with milk. It can also be taken without milk and has a mild sweet taste on its own. Love rooibos (redbush) and can't recommend it enough.

Rooibos (Roy-boss) tea is surely an acquired taste but once you get use to it it's really quite good! This one brews up a very nice deep dark reddish color. The taste is not easy to describe, it is deep and earthy. This tea does not have caffeine so it is a great tea for those that can't have or don't like the feeling you get from caffeine. This is a very nice soothing tea I find myself reaching for more and more!

I have been drinking this Rooibos from Davidson's, along with their South African Honeybush, for the past six months, and I can't believe I was missing out on these great tea varieties for so long. This Rooibos has a delicious aroma and makes some of the best homemade iced tea I've ever tasted, with a gorgeous deep red color. Just be sure to store it in an airtight container after your tea arrives, because it comes in a paper bag that is not meant for long-term storage and will let the aroma out.

I drink Rooibos tea because its caffeine free, great mild taste and has a beautiful clear red color. Its a good quality product at a good price. Now that I know the quality of Davidson's product, I am going to try different tea products from them.

I receive a pound of this tea every month and I love it. This is a great, organic tea that is caffeine free and full of anti-oxidants. It makes excellent ice tea as well. I highly recommend buying Rooibos Tea through Davidson's Tea Company & Amazon.

Rooibos tea is "sweeter" than other teas. I just use a little honey to flavor it. This tea is very good, I even make 2nds with it. A nice caffeine-free break from green tea. Sometimes I will have green in the morning and this before bed.

Davidson's used to be very slow on their delivery, but my last 2 orders have arrived ahead of schedule. Much improved.

The product comes in a plain brown bag, but I quickly put it into a sealed container so that is not a problem.

I have never tried rooibos before and was pleasantly surprised when I drank my first cup. I now drink it daily in the afternoon and it has fast become my favorite tea. I usually drink it blended with Jamaica sorrel (hibiscus sabdariffa also known as roselle) and African honey bush and just add a few drops of lemon juice. It tastes great every time, served hot or cold. I sometimes add rose hips to the blend, and this further enhances the taste. I am running through my rooibos in no time, so I am about to place another order and this time I am also going to add the green rooibos to my blend.
