Tetley Redbush Pure, 40 Tea Bags 100g
Rooibos has no caffeine and no tannin, so unlike black tea this will not turn bitter or stewed no matter how long the bag sits, which is exactly why it works as an evening cup. Tetley keep it to pure South African leaf and it leans genuinely sweet, more caramel and toasted nut than the flat earthiness of cheaper redbush, sweet enough that it needs nothing added. The easiest one to hand someone who is cutting caffeine but still wants a proper hot drink at night.
Tetley Redbush Pure, in brief.
Caffeine status: naturally caffeine-free, nothing per cup, so it suits the evening or the last drink of the day without disturbing your wind-down. Taste profile: smooth and mellow, with a natural honeyed sweetness and soft woody-caramel notes, then a clean, refreshing finish and no bitterness at all. It is forgiving too: leave the bag sitting in the pot and it deepens and rounds out rather than turning sharp or tannic, which is what catches out cheaper rooibos.
