Buchu Lemon Kombucha

From R62,00

Grapefruit bitterness meets the warmth of ginger root, brewed on an oolong base for a kombucha that is endlessly drinkable. Clean, slightly bitter, and very moreish.

Description
The Brew

Brewed on an oolong tea base — a tea that sits between green and black, offering a gentle depth that neither dominates. Fresh grapefruit and ginger root are added before the second fermentation, allowing their flavours to integrate fully into the living brew over time.

Grapefruit provides natural flavonoids and vitamin C. Ginger may help support digestive comfort. Together with 30 days of slow fermentation, this is a kombucha that may contribute to everyday wellness.

Pairs well with → Smoked fish and trout  ·  Prawn ceviche  ·  Rice paper rolls  ·  Grilled halloumi  ·  Bitter leaf salads
