MIA Kombucha, the Italian artisanal kombucha from Varese
Kombucha is the fermented drink of the moment — but not all kombuchas are the same. MIA Kombucha is born in Induno Olona, in the province of Varese, from an artisanal laboratory that produces kombucha with only organic and natural ingredients: no concentrates, no artificial flavors, no preservatives. Just tea, sugar, live cultures, and organic fruit.
Non-alcoholic, lightly sparkling, rich in natural probiotics. Now available on Maltese with shipping throughout Italy.
What is kombucha and why is it different
Kombucha is a beverage obtained from the fermentation of sweetened tea thanks to a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast called SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast). The process is similar to that of beer or kefir: sugar is transformed by microorganisms into organic acids, carbon dioxide, and a small amount of residual alcohol (less than 0.5% — legally non-alcoholic).
The result is a naturally sparkling, slightly acidic drink, rich in live probiotics that support the gut microbiota. A functional alternative to industrial soft drinks, with an aromatic complexity that sugary beverages cannot offer.
The difference between an artisanal and an industrial kombucha lies entirely in the raw materials and the process: MIA uses organic Gunpowder green tea and organic Rukeri black tea, organic cane sugar, and fresh organic fruit. No shortcuts.
The MIA kombuchas available on Maltese
MIA Kombucha Ginger | Non-alcoholic | €4.50 (33 cl)
The most energizing version of the range. On the nose, light citrus and apple notes open up, followed by delicate vegetal hints of green tea, grass, and fresh bark. On the palate, it is lively and refreshing, with the organic ginger standing out boldly and spicily, leaving a warm and persistent finish.
Straw-yellow color. Serve well chilled at 4–6°C, straight from the can or in a glass with ice.
Ideal moments: non-alcoholic aperitif, revitalizing break, natural digestive after meals, pre-workout thanks to the energizing properties of ginger.
MIA Kombucha Lemon | Non-alcoholic | €4.50 (33 cl)
The most refreshing and citrusy version. On the nose, strong notes of fresh lemon dominate, followed by delicate vegetal hints of green tea, grass, and fresh greens. Light notes of yeast and ginger close the bouquet. On the palate, it is lively and refreshing, with a pleasant natural acidity and a clean, refreshing finish.
