Honeybush is native to the Cederberg District (the Eastern Cape) of South Africa. Honeybush is caffeine free, high in antioxidants, and has a wonderfully sweet, very slightly astringent flavour with overtones of honey - the overall flavour is very unique and has been compared to hot apricot jam or a dried fruit mix. Although Honeybush is traditionally enjoyed piping hot, over ice it makes an incredible summertime refresher.
