Sunbird's Flight

There are many ways to use this age-old spice.

Buchu, Boegoe, Bucco, Bookoo and Diosma - Agathosma betulina has many names and it is one of South Africa's best known medicinal plants. It is also most commonly used to make a delicious and healthy tea.

From Zanzibar to Cape Town, where inspiration for our Sunbird Superior new range of Rooibos blends in tea bags came from.

Sweet and sour oranges originate in Asia. Through ancient trade routes, these popular and delicious fruit has found its way to all corners of the world.

Inspired by the history of the Cape along the maritime spice route, and our fascination of fine flavours, we sourced the best international and local spices to complement our premium organically grown Rooibos tea.

The soils and local climate in the Matzikama Mountains produce a wonderful Rooibos tea with a malty aroma leading to caramel flavours. Matzikama comes in compostable teabags making it an environmentally conscious choice. 

Initially we underestimated how challenging it would be to start using fully compostable teabags but eventually we found a local supplier. You can now buy our Cederberg Foothills and Matzikama single-origin Rooibos teas in compostable teabags.
