This name comes from the English "red bush" transformed into "Rooïbos" in South Africa (production region). It therefore does not belong to the tea family and comes in the form of fine needles. Without theine, it is consumed hot or cold and is becoming popular with an increasingly large audience. Rooibos stands out in particular with a different flavor, more herbaceous than tea.
Rooibos is also called red tea (wrongly) because its infusion gives a red liquor. In reality, Rooibos is a plant that belongs to the broom family. Traditionally, Rooibos is created by fermenting the leaves, which take on a red-brown color. There are some varieties that have a greenish appearance, those leaves have not been fermented.

Noel Tea (Christmas Tea):
Flavored Black Tea - The authentic Christmas tea! Trademark registered by Compagnie Coloniale, the latter is a real standard in the world of French teas.
Composition of Christmas tea, by Compagnie Coloniale:
Created in the 80s, the very first Christmas Tea was born in our workshops on the basis of the Christmas Pudding recipe, a flavor associated with the end of year celebrations. This gourmet tea, powerful in taste, where all the ingredients go together wonderfully, make Christmas Tea® a must-have so characteristic of our Christmas collection. Let yourself be transported by the delicate and balanced flavors of this Chinese black tea with subtle aromas of cherry and almond sprinkled with blueberry petals. These tasty aromas still rock our family moments today. An essential Christmas drink, this tea benefits from the characteristic process of steam aromatization, unique know-how of Compagnie Coloniale. This process has the advantage of freezing the aromas on the tea leaves and flavoring them so that they reveal true flavors both in the nose and in the cup. Ideal to face the winter cold to share with friends or family to sublimate the magic of Christmas, Thé de Noël® is the perfect gift to offer yourself or to offer. Selected, created, flavored, and packaged tea in our own workshops in France.
