Kombucha: A Miracle Drink?

The Food Programme

Available for over a year

Kombucha has been around for a while but it has not had huge success in this country like it has in the US and Australia. In this programme, Jaega Wise looks at why that may be as well as sampling some drinks from our BBC Food & Farming Awards finalists and investigating the health claims of kombucha. This programme features Old Tree Brewery, William Kendall, Mark Ilan Abrahams, Paul Cotter, Lucy George from Peterson Tea and Kara Monssen. Presented by Jaega Wise and produced for BBC Audio in Bristol by Sam Grist
