What is green tea kombucha, and how is it made?
Green tea kombucha is a fermented beverage made by brewing high-quality green tea—like Sencha or Oolong—with sugar, water, and a SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast). The fermentation process transforms the tea into a fizzy, lightly acidic drink packed with probiotics and antioxidants. At Left Field, we brew our kombucha from green tea using only natural ingredients—no artificial flavors or fruit infusions—so the tea itself takes center stage.
What makes your kombucha from green tea different from other kombuchas?
Unlike commercial kombuchas that often rely on fruit purées or added sugar, our green tea kombucha tea focuses on the character of the tea. Our Sencha Green offers a clean, grassy taste with tropical notes, while the Oolong is more floral, smooth, and slightly toasty. One reviewer described it best:
“Sencha Green is really delicious—so good I’ve virtually given up wine!”
Is green tea kombucha good for you?
Absolutely. Green tea is rich in antioxidants like catechins, while the fermentation process adds probiotics and organic acids that may support digestion and immunity. One customer noted:
“It’s great for my gut biome, and unlike most kombuchas in shops, it isn’t sweetened with extra fruit sugars.”
How does the taste of green tea kombucha compare to black tea kombucha?
Kombucha made from green tea tends to be lighter, more delicate, and less tannic than black tea versions. You might notice subtle citrus or floral notes instead of earthy or malty tones. According to one fan:
“This is the tastiest kombucha I have ever had—bright, layered, and genuinely refreshing.”
Does your green tea kombucha contain caffeine?
Yes, but in lower amounts than black tea or coffee. Green tea kombucha provides a mild lift without the crash, making it ideal for a midday break or a gentle energy boost. As with all natural teas, caffeine levels vary slightly by batch and tea type.
Is green tea kombucha gluten free and vegan?
Yes. Our kombucha is naturally gluten free and completely vegan—no animal products, and no ingredients derived from grains. As confirmed in our FAQs:
“It is full of lots of good stuff and no animals were harmed in the making of (and no gluten was either).”
Which green teas are in your kombucha collection?
We currently use two exceptional teas:
- Sencha Green: A steamed Japanese green tea with a crisp, grassy character.
- Oolong: A semi-oxidized tea that bridges the gap between green and black, known for its roundness and floral finish.
Both are ethically sourced and chosen specifically for their complexity and balance when fermented.
Is your green tea kombucha pasteurized?
No. Our kombucha is raw and unpasteurized to preserve all the beneficial bacteria, enzymes, and live cultures. One loyal customer said:
“I swapped to Left Field after realizing the other brand I drank was pasteurized. This feels special—it’s the real deal.”
Can I drink green tea kombucha daily?
Yes, many of our customers enjoy a bottle every day as part of a balanced, gut-friendly routine.
“I drink it every day—it’s my ‘me time’ treat.”
Is the kombucha pack with Sencha and Oolong a good gift?
Definitely. The green tea kombucha variety pack is ideal for gifting to tea lovers, wellness seekers, or anyone exploring kombucha for the first time. Reviewers love how elegant and refreshing these flavors are:
“These really are beautiful drinks—my absolute favourite is the Sencha Green. Classy, light and refreshing.”
How should I store green tea kombucha?
Store your kombucha in a cool place away from sunlight. Once opened, keep it refrigerated and consume within a few days for maximum fizz and flavor.
How long does it stay fresh?
Our kombucha typically lasts up to 6 months unopened. After opening, enjoy within 3–5 days for best taste and bubbles.
Can I subscribe to receive green tea kombucha regularly?
Yes! We offer flexible subscriptions so you never run out of your favorite Sencha or Oolong kombucha green tea. You can pause, skip, or cancel anytime.
