About this kombucha

Original Kombucha – You + I

"The booch equivalent of ‘back to basics, but made sexy.’" – Kombucha Kev

FLAVOUR VIBES

Sharp, clean and classy. No messing about, just pure, fizzy kombucha magic. It’s like James Bond in a kimono: smooth, sophisticated, and secretly full of live cultures.

INGREDIENTS

Filtered water, organic green tea, organic cane sugar, kombucha culture. That’s it. No nonsense. No unicorn dust.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT

Four ingredients and a French oak barrel. That's it. It's kombucha with nowhere to hide, which is exactly why it's so good. Crisp, tangy and clean enough to make you feel smug just holding the bottle. Drink it straight, or use it as the base for your own mocktail experiments.

BRAND STORY

Born in Glasgow with a teapot full of dreams, You + I is the lovechild of kombucha obsession and actual fermentation know-how. They don’t cut corners, they brew in fancy French oak barrels like they’re ageing a fine whisky, not babysitting bacteria.

Family-run. Small batch. Big flavours. Bigger hearts. These legends care more about their brew than their mortgage rate, and it shows. They’re not here to be the biggest brand on the shelf, just the best one.

WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL

Brewed in oak barrels (because kombucha deserves a bougie home)

Certified organic and unpasteurised

Small-batch goodness from people who actually smile at their scobys

BREWED IN

Glasgow, Scotland, land of legends and live cultures.

KOMBUCHA KEV SAYS -

“It’s the reset button your taste buds have been crying out for. One sip and you’ll be reaching for another.”

Want the science? Here's what the research actually says about fermented drinks, minus the hype.

Raw and alive

Raw means unpasteurised. The bacteria and yeasts from fermentation are still in there, which is why it needs to stay cold.

Like all kombucha, it has a trace of alcohol from fermentation, always under 0.5% ABV, and a little caffeine from the tea it's brewed with.

Storage: keep it cold

Fridge it from the moment it lands to the moment you drink it. Warm raw kombucha gets lively, so open it slowly over the sink if it's been out. Once open, keep it in the fridge and finish it within a few days.
