Good Hope Vanilla Red Tea

If I have to confess to a favorite red tea, it would be Good Hope Vanilla, because I love the way creamy vanilla compliments the rich, woodsy flavor of rooibos.

Of course, vanilla is the most popular flavor in the world. This humble little orchid first only grew in Central America and could only produce its green bean if pollinated by a native stingless bee. Now vanilla grows in the Reunion Islands off the coast of Africa and is delicately hand pollinated, flower by flower, to produce each vanilla bean. Carefully cured for 6 months, these beans must turn a dark, moist black before they are ready to travel to your teacup. Real vanilla, not synthetic vanillan, contains over 200 flavor components. You will know it by its complexity that is so much more sustaining than one single, overemphasized note.

Enjoy how this smooth, silky tea slips over your tongue and down your throat bringing pleasure.
