Rooibos is a unique herbal tea from South Africa, known for its deep red color and numerous beneficial properties. The inhabitants of Cedarberg, a region in the Western Cape, were the first to discover that the needle-like leaves of the Aspalathus linearis plant create a fragrant and flavorful infusion. However, Rooibos gained commercial recognition in the early 1900s when Russian immigrant Benjamin Ginsberg recognized its potential and introduced it to the market.
