A Taste of South African Wellness

From Farm to Cup: A Proud South African Story 🍃 

Carmién Tea originated in the late 1990s on a small farm in Citrusdal, nestled in the foothills of the Cederberg Mountains. Over the years, the company has grown into a vertically integrated rooibos producer—meaning they grow, harvest, process, and pack their tea on-site. They offer full traceability from the land to your kettle, sourcing both organic and conventional teas across prime South African regions like Piekenierskloof, Wupperthal, and Gifberg.

 

🌱 Conscious Craftsmanship & Eco‑Ethical Practices

Carmién doesn’t just farm—they farm with purpose. They use solar energy, water‑reuse systems, compostable PLA tea‑bags, FSC‑certified packaging, and eco‑inks. They’re Fairtrade‑certified and uphold worker ownership schemes—placing community empowerment at the core of their operations.

Their work in youth development, skill‑building, and community initiatives like the Mouton Foundation shows their commitment doesn't end at tea—it resonates through South African life .

 

🌿 Wide Range of Flavours & Functional Blends

On their website and partnering stores like Faithful to Nature, you’ll find dozens of blends from kid-friendly and nursing teas to cold‑brew fruit infusions and immune‑boosting wellness blends.

Their range includes functional blends with echinacea, vitamin C, zinc, collagen, probiotics, ginkgo biloba, and more—designed to support digestive comfort, stress relief, menopausal balance, maternal health, and immune wellness.
