Six Months Later: A Small Change That Made a Big Difference
I purchased this SCOBY about six months ago, at a time when I was honestly feeling quite desperate. I had been struggling with ongoing digestive discomfort, and nothing I tried seemed to bring lasting relief. I had heard about kombucha for years but never felt confident enough to make it at home, until I found this starter. It arrived well-packaged, clean, and exactly as described, which immediately gave me confidence that I was starting with a quality product. What I appreciated most was how approachable the process felt. The SCOBY looked healthy and substantial, and the included starter liquid made the first batch much easier to begin. I’m someone who values clear, simple steps, and this product delivered exactly that. Within a short time, I had my first brew going, and over the weeks, I became more comfortable refining the flavor to my liking. After consistently using it for several months, I can genuinely say this has been a worthwhile addition to my routine. The quality of the SCOBY has held up beautifully, it continues to produce new layers, allowing me to keep brewing without needing to purchase another one. More importantly, I’ve noticed a steady improvement in my digestion. It’s not an instant fix, but rather a gentle, natural support that has made my daily life more comfortable. What started as an urgent purchase has turned into a long-term habit I truly value. I also appreciate knowing that I’m making something at home with ingredients I trust. For anyone considering brewing their own kombucha—especially if you’re looking for digestive support—this SCOBY is a reliable and cost-effective way to begin.

Good quality scobys
Awesome. Came in perfect condition. I have made some Kombucha and is came out good.

Perfect every time
These are the best scoby’s ever. They are large and thick. My kombucha always comes out perfect every time with these. My only issue is that you only get 1/4 cup of starter tea with each scoby. Which is not enough for me to make a gallon of kombucha. It plainly states that 1/4 cup of starter tea will only make 1/4 gallon of kombucha. Even knowing that I still consider these to be the best scoby’s of choice. Just wish there was more starter tea.

Leaked, barely any liquid
This is the first time I've had kombucha go moldy on me in over 25 years of brewing. So frustrating to waste so much time, only to have to start over. Obviously ordered from a different company for my next scoby.

Best Scoby around! Buy this one!
This started as a very well packaged small diameter Scoby. The directions are clear and easy. I ramped up the tea amount and the Scoby went nuts. After two batches, now I have three scobies (the Scoby on the left has separated and ready to be put into two jugs.) The Scoby you get is totally live and works great. These jugs are from Dollar Tree and work awesome. Screw caps allow CO2 buildup to escape, but enough to stay to make the tea carbonated. It is great tea. I reccomend buying these scobies! Fun project for the kids. Excellent if you have gastrointestinal problems/flora imbalance. Also great scouting project.

Never ending kombucha
The scoby came in half ripped l, but it was still healty enough to get kombucha growing. The taste of the kombucha it made is good. Just follow the instructions and it make more kombucha and scoby easily. Definitely worth it. Now I have a never ending supply of kombucha.

Excellent scoby
I’m very satisfied with this scoby! It arrived quickly and in great shape—thick, healthy, and ready to go. Brewing the tea was super easy, and within just 7 days I had my first batch of delicious kombucha. The taste was surprisingly smooth and well-balanced. I've been using it weekly since and consistently get fresh kombucha. Highly recommend it, especially if you're a beginner in that process.

Healthy viable SCOBY
The scone is as large as stated and it was very healthy. It is healthy and strong enough to keep making more SCOBIES. It is very easy to use because it is a healthy specimen. Makes excellent tasting kombucha.
