KOMBUCHERY – The founding of our startup
Childhood memories of kombucha
Let's go back in time a few years and go back to our childhood. We remember how our grandmothers brewed a healthy drink with a round brownish “something”. Sometimes they also brought home a brown bottle of the tea drink from the health food store.
Even back then, our grandmas appreciated the many nutrients in kombucha
They wanted to protect us from dangerous colds and stomach aches. At that time we found the cold tea rather bland and took some getting used to. We certainly couldn't imagine that one day it would become our great passion.
Years later, we fell in love with the drink again
Many years later, Max (KOMBUCHERY founder) suddenly realized something during his time on the west coast of America. Kombucha is much more than that bland drink from grandma.
At that time there were already countless kombucha manufacturers in the USA. Refreshing tea drinks were available to buy in retail stores and many cafés. This type of fermented tea drink immediately hooked him. Back in Germany he started fermenting at home himself. The countless interesting flavors wouldn't let go of him.
Friends and colleagues immediately loved the homemade kombucha
The sparkling tea drink was immediately popular with his friends and colleagues and thus brought our current KOMBUCHERY team together. We founded the Kombucha Brewery = KOMBUCHERY. This meant we were able to combine not only our passion for the drink, but also years of experience in marketing, design and clever sales talent.
There has to be more in the bottle than just kombucha
It was clear to all of us that if we really dared to start a company, we had to stand behind the ingredients 100%. We wanted to create a drink that was refreshing and sparkling like a traditional soft drink, but even more useful for the customer. A drink that is produced fairly and is 100% organic and raw. By continuing traditional and unpasteurized production, we can continue Grandma's tradition. At the same time, we have the opportunity to reinvent the drink with exciting flavors. A live, gluten and lactose free soft drink. It only offers advantages over traditional soft drinks.
Less sugar than other kombucha makers
We are on a mission to displace drinks containing industrial sugar and artificial additives. That's why we use 40% less sugar than most other manufacturers. Kombucha has countless positive properties. It offers thousands of opportunities to develop exotic and refreshing flavors. We will not stop researching these and working out the perfect and natural flavors for you.
