which of the many kombucha's is the best?this kombucha post comes from a request.
i say high country kombucha.
which flavors? i like em all.
why high country?
- it comes in amber glass to protect the live bacteria culture from UV/light damage
- it is the only mass produced authentic kombucha, with Z. kombuchaensis bacteria,
instead of lactobacillus acidophilus("meaning acid-loving milk-bacterium" - wiki)
- lactobacillus acidophilus is still good, but less authentic,
- check probiotic content listed on the bottles.
- the newer bottles, not pictured above, say authentic on the top of the label.
- amber glass + authentic kombucha culture = more effective kombucha.
- you don't have to drink as much of it to feel better.
i have friends that drink kombucha daily,
but i only have like 1 or 2 bottles a week cause it's not cheap! around $3.50/16oz bottle.
- with high country kombucha, i'll just have a few sips when i'm feeling super beat, have to be awake in the morning, dehydrated, or anything like that.
- you don't have to drink as much of it to feel better.
- it's 100% organic, not all kombucha are.
- it's made with the ancient himalayan recipe, with high colorado mountain spring water instead of himalayan, which is then reverse osmosis filtered.
- GT's kombucha, and their synergy brand, have trace amounts of alcohol content due to fermentation, and a small bit of caffeine, high country doesn't.
that's the essential information,
from here i would suggest exploring different kombucha for yourself and reading their labels.
i've only really seen it at whole foods bowery, so if you want to read more, or don't know what kombucha is, click to read more:
