It is well known that hibiscus has an interesting and rich past. This vivid red beverage has Egyptian origins and was highly valued by Egyptian pharaohs for its distinct sour flavor and possibly therapeutic qualities. Eventually, the hibiscus flower, sometimes called Hibiscus sabdariffa or Roselle, arrived in the Caribbean. From then on, hibiscus tea became popular all over the world, with variants appearing in Latin America, West Africa, and other regions. Today, people all over the world love this antioxidant-rich tisane for its flavorful, vivid aroma as well as its possible health advantages, which include decreasing blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels.

Hibiscus Flowers

The meticulous collection of vivid hibiscus blossoms from our certified organic farms is the first step in the manufacturing of our organic bulk hibiscus. Usually, these flowers are picked by hand to guarantee that only the best blooms are chosen for processing.

The process of drying and withering the flowers after they are collected eliminates extra moisture and concentrates the natural tastes and chemicals in the petals. The hibiscus flowers are chopped or shred into tiny pieces to maximize surface area after drying. This makes it possible to extract the desired chemicals from the brew more effectively.

The hibiscus leaves may go through a controlled oxidation process to intensify the distinct sour and acidic flavors associated with hibiscus tea, depending on the desired qualities of the finished tea. In order to ensure that our customers may continue to enjoy the brilliant color and refreshing flavor of our tea, the dried and processed hibiscus is carefully packaged to maintain its freshness and quality.
