Jared’s full review
Introduction
Second Kombucha review, and here I actually listened to my own advice. My first Kombucha experience was terrible – I think it was GT Dave’s Gingerade, and I was like “this is disgusting”. I finally gave booch another chance, but I had been going too mild. The last one I had was basically just green tea. So I decided to get a little crazy and get a fruit flavor going. Don’t expect another ginger flavored Kombucha anytime soon, though.
Appearance
i think it’s a pretty cool bottle so I’ll give it a 7. I like the blue and yellow combo and the anchor logo. It’s got some vibes for sure. Also, how did I get this far without talking about the name?? Grape vibes!!
Taste
Taste is excellent. I’m definitely on the right track getting into the fruit kombucha flavors. As with the last couple of kombucha flavors I’ve had, it’s very muted – but I can taste the green & black tea, and the grape flavor is just strong enough to ~hit~ different.
Kick
I have no idea how much caffeine this has, or what the “energy blend” is that we usually talk about for typical energy drinks. But it’s giving me a nice boost at 3pm after not having any caffeine in between now and my morning coffee (like 8am). 5 since it’s been a solid boost.
Conclusion
It’s been on the up and up since my first kombucha bottle so I’m excited to try some more. The issue is it’s SO expensive. Seriously, I feel like kombucha needs to get more popular so that I’m not paying close to $5 a bottle. But maybe that’s just DMV (DC, Maryland, and Virginia) prices.
