Western Cape Rooibos
$48.00
“Maybe happiness wasn’t found in a whirlwind romance or a bottomless mimosa… maybe it was in the stillness of steeping something just for yourself.”
Western Cape Rooibos is the original red—deep, earthy, and decadently smooth. Sourced from the sun-drenched valleys of South Africa’s Cederberg mountains, this loose-leaf blend is romance in a teacup. Heavy vanilla notes swirl through each sip like a whispered secret, grounding you in comfort and elegance. Naturally caffeine-free and rich in antioxidants, it’s your new morning lover—or your midnight muse.
Pair it with silk robes, Sunday journals, and a vintage record spinning something smooth. Because this isn’t just tea. It’s a lifestyle of softness, sensuality, and self-made rituals.
Playlist Theme
"Soft Pour, Soft Power"
A soundtrack for slow mornings and romantic thoughts. This playlist moves like honey—think Sade, Solange, Leon Bridges, Erykah Badu, and Al Green with a touch of old French jazz. Designed for daydreaming, journaling, or watching sunbeams fall across your hardwood floors.
Curated for sipping something rich and letting the world wait. ---
Mood
Think blooming luxury. A warm breeze through linen curtains. Silk on skin. A lover’s smile across the rim of a porcelain teacup. Western Cape Rooibos isn’t loud—it lingers. It’s golden hour in a glass, dressed in nostalgia and intention.
Steeping Instructions
1 tsp | 8 oz water | 200°F | 5–7 minutes
