What is Konbucha?
- Konbucha is a traditional Japanese tea made from konbu (kelp), a type of edible seaweed. Unlike the fermented drink known as kombucha in the West, Japanese Konbucha is a savory, umami-rich tea made by steeping powdered or dried kelp.

Packed with Umami Flavor:
- Konbucha is known for its salty, savory taste, with a deep umami flavor derived from the natural glutamates in konbu. This makes it a unique alternative to traditional teas, perfect for those who enjoy savory beverages.

Rich in Minerals:
- Konbu is a natural source of essential minerals like iodine, calcium, and magnesium, which support thyroid health, bone strength, and overall wellness. It also contains alginate, a dietary fiber that aids digestion.
