Organic Japanese Kombucha Scoby

Discover the magic of Organic Japanese Kombucha Scoby, your gateway to a fizzy, slightly salty fermented green tea experience. This unique brew boasts a blend of bacteria and yeasts, traditionally crafted with matcha tea and kombu kelp, though it adapts beautifully to any green tea variety and seaweed.

Initially, the idea of fermenting seaweed with kombucha might raise eyebrows—it did for us! Yet, the result pleasantly surprises, offering a subtly salty twist on classic kombucha, enriched with the goodness of seaweed and green tea.

The origins of Japanese kombucha are intriguingly intertwined with Japan’s culinary traditions. Kombu Cha, a seaweed-based beverage, shares similarities in name but differs significantly in taste and preparation from its Western kombucha counterpart. The modern Japanese kombucha likely emerged as a fusion of these influences rather than dating back to wartime, as some myths suggest.

Crafting kombucha with matcha and seaweed brings numerous health benefits. Seaweed, a natural iodine source, complements matcha’s renowned antioxidant properties, particularly its high EGCG content. Combined through fermentation, these ingredients create a uniquely potent tea experience.

While any green tea can suffice, opting for quality matcha enhances both flavour and health benefits. For optimal results, select ceremonial grade matcha, ensuring authenticity to harness its full potential. We recommend trusted suppliers such as Cup of Tea, Lalani & Co, and Pure Chimp for sourcing top-tier matcha.
