Kombucha — the health drink sweeping the globe

In recent years kombucha has become a highly popular, nutrient-rich health drink among international celebrities. After fermentation by a SCOBY, the brew is rich in probiotics, organic acids, tea polyphenols, and flavonoids, offering antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and gut-health benefits. InstaKOMBU™ uses hand-picked small-leaf high-mountain tea from Alishan, Taiwan, in black, green, and oolong variants; fermented with a food-grade SCOBY and then converted into powder form via patented microencapsulation technology, it preserves kombucha's full flavor and nutrition while overcoming the transport, storage, and application limitations of liquid kombucha.
