Kombucha, or kombucha tea, is a drink made from fermented tea with many health benefits, as described by numerous scientific studies published in the most prestigious magazines. Among others, kombucha contains probiotics, improves digestion and helps detoxify the body. Kombucha has a very long history and has been made in the East for more than 2,000 years. Mun Kombucha, made by Mun Ferments, has reinterpreted the ancestral recipe to make a super delicious and even healthier version.
Less is more. Water, sugar and tea. Only 3 ingredients.
In our case, Mun Kombucha from Mūn Ferments: green tea, of the Lung Ching variety, the most ecological that is grown in the world. Organic sugar cane and filtered water.
No. A quality kombucha must be packaged in glass, it cannot be pasteurized in order to not to lose its probiotic properties, it must have natural and organic ingredients and it must contain as little sugar as possible. Look no further: Mun Kombucha ticks all the boxes.
Don’t panic, please! Cane sugar is one of the ingredients in our kombucha. To brew kombucha it is absolutely essential as the food used by yeasts and bacteria to ferment. Do not suffer, since in the final product the sugar only remains a minimal residual amount, which the bacteria have not been able to eat. In the case of Kombutxa, it is a maximum of 1.8 grams per 100 ml.
As in all fermented products, alcohol is generated during the kombucha brewing process. Our kombucha contains a very small amount: less than 1,2% alcohol.
Many factors, including ambient temperature, sugar concentrations in fruit and vegetables we add, the time of year or moon phase when it is made, all these facts make each batch unique. The taste and sweetness or carbonation may therefore vary. It is difficult to control nature.
The very little amount of residual sugar it contains makes Mun Kombucha the only artisan and unpasteurized kombucha that does not require cold storage and during transportation. You just need a place away from heat to store it.
Once opened keep it in the refrigerator and drink it in less than 10 days.
Always drink it very cool to better appreciate the fabulous flavor that the second fermentation gives it. You will also notice the bubbles it contains much more!
There is no ideal time to take it. The best moment is when you feel like it.
Mun Kombucha is a natural probiotic drink and it is necessary that you take it into account if you want to consume it regularly. You can start with 100 ml and, according to tolerance, increases the dose. The important thing is to listen to your body.
In Mun Kombucha we use simple ingredients, the procedure to make kombucha could not be easier. We infuse the tea, sweeten it and add a culture of bacteria and yeast, which is known as the mother or SCOBY (Symbiotic Colony of Bacteria and Yeast). We let it ferment for 4 weeks. Before packaging, we add fruit or vegetable juices and / or infusions. It is then when a second fermentation takes place in the bottle and the soft bubble is born.
The bubble contained in our drinks is generated spontaneously during the second fermentation process.
The best before date is 9 months from the production date. Once you open a bottle, we recommend keeping it cold and consuming it within a maximum period of 10 days. It does not lose properties, do not suffer, but it can vary in taste and lose the fine bubble.
Kombucha has a very peculiar taste, which we do not have in our taste register. It is between sweet and vinegary. Depending on the varieties, remember cider or rosé cava.
We brew Mun Kombucha in Mataró, near Barcelona. The mild climate of the capital of Maresme is ideal for making the best kombucha, getting its properties during all stages of its production.
If you suffer from SIBO, an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine, kombucha may not feel very good for you as it is a highly probiotic product. In fact, each milliliter contains about a million bacteria. Fix this health problem with the help of a professional and then you can have as much kombucha as you like.
In the facilities where Mun Kombucha is made, there is no presence of gluten. This is why the drink can be considered suitable for coeliacs, as shown by the periodic tests we do. Nor in the case of the Paleobirra variety, which combines kombucha with an infusion of hops, with no gluten or other cereal, in fact.
All of our products are vegan. They contain absolutely no animal ingredients. Thus, it is suitable for those who follow this diet.

At Mun Ferments we make (almost) as many varieties as there are tastes. If you have never tried us yet and you are adventurous, we advise you to get a batch that will allow you to try them all.

Later, choose the one that makes you most excited. Read the labels carefully to know the ingredients and decide on the one that catches your attention the most.
Kombucha is made from tea that is fermented and, although there is very little caffeine in the final product (about 5 milligrams compared to 100 in a cup of coffee), it must be taken into account when we want to give it a child. Likewise, we must also consider the fact that, as fermented drink, it contains a minimum amount of alcohol, less than 1,2%.
In a world full of sodas, loaded with sugar and artificial ingredients, a glass of kombucha is a healthy option. It can also be mixed with fresh water or some fruit or vegetable juice to offer it to the little ones.

Good news! If you have detected that there is a deposit at the bottom of the bottle, you should know that it is a sign of the health of your kombucha. It is the natural yeasts that have contributed to the production of the kombucha bubbles. It has a peculiar taste, but it brings many health benefits.
