Green Rooibos Organic

£2.75

Most rooibos is red, but this is its lesser-known green sibling. It is the same plant, and the same organic rooibos from the Cederberg region of South Africa as my classic red Rooibos Organic ; the difference is all in the processing. Where red rooibos is left to oxidise, which turns it that familiar deep red, green rooibos is heat-treated soon after picking to stop it oxidising, much as a green tea is. That keeps the leaf green and the flavour fresh. The result is lighter, brighter and more delicate than red rooibos: a pale, refreshing cup with clean, grassy notes rather than the red's deep,

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as TEAM TEA LTD, number 11054295. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
Not established. Many companies file a statement rather than naming a controlling shareholder.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
