What Is Kombucha?

Kombucha is a sparkling fermented tea that is naturally rich in live cultures and packed with a multitude of nature’s goodness. It’s filled with minerals, vitamins, organic acids and nutrients indispensable for the proper functioning of the body. It’s the perfect refreshment when you’re looking for an alternative to sugary soft drinks, a flavourful non-alcoholic tipple, or an imaginative mixer.

This fermented tea is usually made with black, green or Pu-Erh tea. It starts as a combination of yeast and bacterial fermentation. The result is a drink that is slightly astringent in flavour, thanks to the beneficial acids and vinegars. It contains a low amount of remaining sugars, as the sugar is consumed by the culture converting it into health-giving enzymes.

The taste of kombucha varies depending on the choice of tea used to make it. Our Mighty Brew Kombucha is made with organic Sencha green tea leaves giving it a fragrant, fresh, crisp taste. Throughout the year, we make sure we use only the freshest, finest organic ingredients that nature can offer to produce Kombucha that tastes deliciously elegant and subtle.

If you’re not used to having live, fermented food or drink it’s best to take it slowly to begin with. Just have a little bit to start with and then you can increase the amount you drink on a regular basis.

It’s not an exact science but a small glass of kombucha in the morning or the evening is a great way to help feed your gut health. You may find you get a taste for it and enjoy drinking more over time.

Any healthy diet is all about variety and not consuming an excess of any one thing. If you have any concerns it’s always important for you to discuss these with your doctor first.

The process of preparing Mighty Brew Kombucha involves a double fermentation process. A SCOBY (a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast) is placed in a tea mixture and sweetened with raw cane sugar. First fermentation, the brew is left to ferment at room temperature. The sugar is consumed by the culture, converting it into health-giving energies. Second fermentation, we infuse the brew with natural botanicals and leave to ferment; before bottling our raw, unpasteurised kombucha. Being a raw organic product, there can be some batch variation in colour, flavour, nose, appearance or composition, reflecting growing, fermentation and seasonal variations. This is artisan brewing at its best and we invest both love and dedication to the entire process – with our Mighty Brew Kombucha reaping exceptional taste as a result!

Kombucha is a great non-alcoholic alternative to wine and just like a good wine can have subtle variations from one brew to another. Wine is made by fermenting grapes while kombucha is made by fermenting tea. Kombucha is a raw organic product, so there can be some batch variation in colour, flavour, nose, appearance or composition, reflecting growing, fermentation and seasonal variations.

Being raw it’s absolutely normal to find sediment in the bottle. Unopened kombucha can last up to 12 months but we find it’s enjoyed way sooner than this! At Mighty Brew we recommend consuming our kombucha within five days of opening. Kombucha is a live drink so make sure you keep it refrigerated for freshness and quality.
