WHO ARE WE?
KrafTea Kombucha began with a passion for crafting exceptional beverages and a DIY spirit. Frustrated by limited options, the founder, Matthew Glidden, combined brewing expertise with community support to create unique kombucha. From small batches to a thriving taproom, KrafTea embodies organic growth and a commitment to quality.


Our Story
About 10 years ago I got my first taste of kombucha, and I was blown away. I did all the research I could and with some starter culture from a friendly neighbor, I started making my own. It got so popular among friends and family that I knew I needed to scale up if I wanted to have any for myself.
So I did, and I continue on that trajectory to this day.

Our Process
KrafTea Kombucha begins with our own unique blend of sweetened organic tea. After a few weeks of fermentation with a kombucha culture, the sweet tea is completely transformed into a tart, lightly carbonated, low-alcohol drink. To that we add the best flavorings we can find. Fresh-pressed ginger juice, additional organic teas, 100% juices, just to name a few. KrafTea Kombucha is all-natural, gluten-free, and produced locally in Worcester, Massachusetts.

The Benefit
Because we do not modify or filter our kombucha after the initial fermentation, the maximum amount of beneficial vitamins and probiotics are maintained. The result is that, unlike most kombuchas on the market, our kombucha contains a small amount of natural alcohol from the fermentation process. While the amount varies according to factors such as flavoring, age, and temperature, it is approximately 2% ABV.
