Kombucha SCOBY Organic
Organic Kombucha SCOBY Culture
Kombucha is a fermented sweetened tea loaded with antioxidants, vitamins, probiotics and minerals to improve our health and wellbeing.
Our kombucha SCOBYs are grown and nurtured under license so that when they leave us they are resilient and ready for their new home.
Kombucha SCOBYs can go by various names including:
- Kombucha culture
- Mother culture
- Pellicle
- Kombucha mushroom
What is a SCOBY?
A SCOBY is a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeasts used to ferment sweetened tea into probiotic kombucha. The SCOBY is a cellulose mat made up of bacteria and yeasts which are imperative to the fermentation of kombucha. Read our blog to find out more about what is a Kombucha SCOBY and the benefits.
How do I make kombucha with a SCOBY?
One needs to have a SCOBY in order to ferment your kombucha. You simply dissolve sugar into tea, cool it to room temperature, and add your SCOBY. Wait a few days and you will now have kombucha that you can flavour according to your desired taste. All instructions are provided with your purchase to start fermenting 1L of kombucha and increased volumes. Read our blog about how to make Kombucha at home.
When receiving your SCOBY, you either need to ferment it within a few days of receiving it, or place it in the fridge for up to 10 days if you are not going to ferment it right away.
Everything you need to make Kombucha:
- A Healthy SCOBY
- Sugar
- Unchlorinated/filtered water
- Black, white or green tea
- An elasticated small cotton top or a larger top
- Glass fermentation jar
Alternatively, we provide a complete Kombucha Kit which includes everything you need. All you need to do is add water!

We are underway with our Kombucha brewing, and it was good from the first batch. We are experimenting with the ginger and lemon for the secondary fermentation to get more fizz but it all tastes great. Thank you for a great product.
Excellent! Very fast delivery. Already made two batches of kombucha! Great taste from both green and black teas.
Awesome service and fantastic product. My kombucha scoby is fermenting strong!
I ordered this scoby in the morning and it was in the post that afternoon. These guys don't waste any time, I had it in a couple of days.
I ordered my scoby online which did not take long to be delivered, great fast service. I have been making kombucha, very easy, lots of fun, delicious
Thank you my scoby arrived within 24 hours of ordering. Great service.
Fantastic! It did take a while for it to arrive as I’m in the South Island, so that’s understandable, but it was packed airtight, had enough starter tea for a small batch which I have been growing to a larger starter 😊 great quality, very happy!
Thanks. I received a good, strong, healthy starter the day after I placed my order. I popped it into its new tea, and it took off like a rocket!
Great product(s), straightforward service, delivery and directions on how to use. Thanks!
I was absolutely impressed with the quality of the scoby and the way it was packaged. Professional and the instructions were super helpful.
I know where to return for more scoby!

Good quality product
I am onto my 2nd batch of Kombucha and I am looking forward to the finished bottles.
I am enjoying the kombucha I have been making & am waiting patiently for the scoby to multiply. It appears to be slowly happening so will remain patient! Very happy with the product thank you.
Great to hear Allie! It will multiply with a little time and patience;)
The SCOBY arrived in good condition and over a week it has grown a thin, much larger skin. I’m hoping my second ferment in bottles will be a success.
I bought a scoby to make kombucha. Have already made 2 rounds of kombucha. Great purchase. Thanks.
A quality SCOBY with clear instructions. The product arrived promptly and in great condition.
Thanks for the careful packing and efficient dispatch of my scout. The info included is great and I’m on my second batch already.
Very happy, thanks very much. We enjoy the Kombbucha.
Did a small brew 1 L with the new scoby. It grew a new baby scoby as expected. Now I'm making a 3.5 L brew with them both. Thanks.
A nicely packaged and very healthy scoby. Very fast postage time too, thank you.
Very easy to use and tastes great.
My Scoby arrived in just. Couple of days after ordering
Am impressed with the speedy delivery and quality of your Scoby. Enjoying Kombucha from our recently purchased scoby . Thanks team.

Great service
Very happy customer 😊
I have made my first batch it was delicious
I set up the scoby as per the instructions and with the warm weather it seems to be growing.My plan is to not take anything from this batch (apart from tasting) but when it has reached maturity in a few days I intend to use it as a starter for a bigger batch.
Bottled kombucha is about $5 per litre bottle.When I have got this fully running I would expect that cost to be a few cents per litre. I intend to use homegrown fruir (lemons, plums and apricots) along with some shop bought ginger for flavouring.
I'm on to my second batch of Kombucha - the instruction sheet has been very useful :)
Received my order in quick time and it’s been great so far with good instructions to help me get started.
The infusions are also very good
Good Quality and going strong. Clear instructions. Will only fail from neglect…in my experience
