More about the indigenous herbs:

  • Buchu: The Cape Fynbos biome, between Lambert’s Bay (west coast) and Port Elizabeth (south coast), is home to the Honeybush (Cylopia). Honeybush leaves have been used as a tea for centuries. Medicinal properties include a calming effect (no caffeine and a low tannin content) and a richness in antioxidants. The bush’s gentle honey aroma resulted in the common name given to this plant.
  • Honeybush: The Cape Fynbos biome, between Lambert’s Bay (west coast) and Port Elizabeth (south coast), is home to the Honeybush (Cylopia). Honeybush leaves have been used as a tea for centuries. Medicinal properties include a calming effect (no caffeine and a low tannin content) and a richness in antioxidants. The bush’s gentle honey aroma resulted in the common name given to this plant.
  • Rose Geranium: Native to South Africa, the rose geranium has a number of medicinal properties. It acts as a natural disinfectant and may be used to reduce inflammation. It also helps to control bleeding and its soothing effect benefits body and mind.
  • Wild Rosemary: Wild rosemary (Eriocephalus africanus) thrives in clay soil. Medicinal benefits include use as a diuretic, the treatment of colds and the promotion of healthy skin and hair.
  • Olive: The magic ingredient in the wild olive (Olea europaea subspecies africana) is oleuropein, a constituent found in the leaves. This compound boosts the immune system, counters allergies, de-activates viruses and fights a variety of infections.

Brand

Rozendal Farm

The Rozendal Farm story begins in the 1980s, when Rozendal owner Kurt Ammann was still making wine – and enjoying success with his acclaimed Bordeaux blends. One year, Kurt realised that his 1988 vintage contained slightly too much volatile acidity, and this ‘flaw’ proved a happy accident – providing the perfect opportunity to venture into vinegar making. Intrigued by the quality and health benefits reported by advocates of raw, artisan vinegar; Kurt began his own endeavours with 2000 litres of ‘flawed’ wine and a commitment to time-honoured, natural processes. These were processes so slow that they would span generations – with Kurt’s children now bottling vinegars birthed by their father.
