Cyclopia spp. · Pure South African Honeybush · Naturally Caffeine-Free

Softly sweet, gently floral and wonderfully mellow, Honeybush Tea celebrates the natural flavour of a single South African botanical.

Made from the aromatic leaves and stems of plants in the genus Cyclopia, Honeybush has a cherished place in South African herbal tea traditions. Its fragrant amber-coloured cup is naturally caffeine-free and often has a rounded honey-like character, without added honey.

At Flowers from my Meadow, we keep it pure and uncomplicated: 100% Honeybush, carefully packed for a warm everyday tea ritual. The precise Cyclopia species is not confirmed on the current product listing.
