From cottage industry to certified B Corp : the story of MOMO Kombucha ’ s stellar success
MOMO Kombucha creates certified organic kombucha using natural methods from its New Covent Garden Market brewery . The growing team ’ s mission is to produce the best tasting and highest quality kombucha , which is achieved by using organic ingredients , including a blend of the finest teas and slow pressed organic juice . It is brewed in glass bottles , in small batches , and left completely unfiltered to offer the maximum health impact .
Kombucha , or fermented tea , has been around for thousands of years . When properly brewed it is a delicious , slightly fizzy and refreshing soft drink that is low in sugar and naturally contains probiotics and healthy organic acids . It is made using four simple ingredients : tea , water , sugar and a SCOBY , which is a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast . During fermentation , the yeast consumes sugar and produces alcohol , then the bacteria consume this alcohol to produce the acids that give kombucha its tangy flavor .
Celebrating its fifth birthday in 2023 , MOMO has enjoyed considerable success to date . Founders , Lisa and Josh Puddle , fell in love with the kombucha brewing process and have taken the business from their kitchen in Southeast London to over 7000 square feet of space at New Covent Garden Market . Josh left his job in equity analysis for Berenberg Bank and PwC , and Lisa left her role in fashion marketing for Net a Porter , ASOS , Prada and Urban Outfitters , to dedicate themselves to brewing the ultimate kombucha .
