Kombucha – a drink that has won the hearts of people all over the world. It is a fermented tea whose origins date back thousands of years, when it was called the “elixir of life”. Today, kombucha is not only refreshing, but also brings health benefits.
What is kombucha and how is it made?
Kombucha is made by fermenting sweetened tea with the help of a SCOBY – a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast. At Caracalya, this process takes 30 days, ensuring a rich taste and full health benefits. Unlike competing products, which are often unfermented or pasteurized, our kombucha is authentic, fresh and alive.
