Buchi Kombucha Information

Buchi is a community centered, women owned family business continuing the ancient folk tradition of craft-brewing kombucha, an all natural, non-alcoholic, living, social beverage. Kombucha provides a healthy nutrient rich alternative to high fructose corn syrup saturated sodas and chemically contaminated energy drinks. The bold taste won over kombucha aficionados and recovering soda drinkers in droves, and when local restaurants began requesting Buchi it became obvious there was huge demand for our sweet and sour carbonated concoction. By the spring of 2009, gallon jars filled every horizontal surface in our kitchens and dining rooms so we moved to a shared kitchen at Blue Ridge Food Ventures, and under their loving guidance we continued to sell every drop we could produce. In winter of 2009, we found a permanent home in the form of a retired wine distribution warehouse, hidden amongst the thickets of an organic farm. Months later it was transformed into our 6,800+ square foot earth bermed brewery and we became the first commercial kombucha brewery in the southeast! We created this company because we each envision a return to wholesome, regionally produced foods that nourish our bodies, our community, and our local economy. We sincerely hope our life’s passion will bring health and happiness to you and your loved ones.
