LAO Kombucha.
Three months of fermentation.
Kombucha is a fermented tea. Real tea is brewed, sugar is added, then a culture of yeasts and bacteria slowly turns it into a lively, lightly tart drink. At LAO, that fermentation lasts a full three months. Designed, brewed and bottled in Quebec from teas sourced with intention: 7 flavours, less than 0.5% alc./vol., awarded at WAFA 2024.

What is kombucha?
Kombucha is a fermented tea. Real tea is brewed, sugar is added, then a culture of yeasts and bacteria slowly turns the infusion into a lively, lightly tart drink. At LAO, that fermentation lasts a full three months.
Does LAO kombucha contain alcohol?
LAO kombucha contains less than 0.5% alc./vol. Like all kombucha, fermentation naturally produces trace amounts of alcohol, which stay below that threshold.
Is there caffeine in kombucha?
Yes, since it is made from real tea. The amount depends on the tea: white tea for Crystal, green tea for Rosé and Mojito Inspired, matcha for Blue Matcha, pu'er for Wild Blueberry, black tea for Iced Black and Candied Ginger.
How much sugar is in LAO kombucha?
Mojito Inspired and Candied Ginger, our low sugar line, contain only 1g of sugar per bottle. For the other flavours, the exact amount is listed in the Nutrition Facts table on each bottle.
Why three months of fermentation?
Because time develops the natural complexity of the tea. Every bottle of LAO kombucha ferments for a full three months: it's about standards, not speed.
Kombucha, kombutcha, komboucha, kumbucha, kambucha: which spelling is right?
Kombucha is the accepted spelling. Kombutcha, komboucha, kumbucha, kambucha and kamboucha all refer to the same drink: a fermented tea.
Which flavour should I choose?
For something delicate, Crystal. Floral, Rosé or Blue Matcha. Herbal, Mojito Inspired. Aromatic, Wild Blueberry or Candied Ginger. And for something bold, Iced Black.
