Todella mangoinen. Ei lainkaan teen makua, jota ainakin itse jään hieman kaipaamaan.

Doesn't taste like typical kombucha but more like lemonade.

Hoppy International Beer Day 2022!! 🍻 Today's first is a non-alcoholic Kombucha to flush my lunch down. The color is, again, colorless. Like a bit hazy water. Sparkling carbonation is significantly short-lived and any bubbly head dies intermediately away. The scent is, again, sweet candy-like, somewhat like industrially produced sweets. This time it's difficult to identify any specific fruit there, maybe some peach and orange. The taste is medium-sweet but not as unwelcomingly sappy as that of the Mixed Berry version. This is manageable. Mango can be spotted, just like orange, peach and citric acid. Somewhat artificial but less than the Mixed Berry. The drawback here is the even weaker presence of green tea. The finish takes its time on the tongue. The mouthfeel is light, a bit synthetic, slightly lip-glueing but simultaneously modestly drying. Decent but still too soft-drink-like to my taste.

Paras maistamani kombucha tähän mennessä! Mangon maku hyvä ja tosi raikas! Ostan jatkossakin!

A non-alc Kombucha to accompany a meal. Immediately when I pour this in a glass, I get surprised big time: I expect something like purple but the drink is actually more or less colorless. Just a very faint creamy hue can be detected. It's still fully transparent. Carbonation is sparkling but basically no head emerges on the top. The fragrance puts forward sweet fruit winegum. If I have to identify specific fruits or berries, I could mention strawberry and raspberry. Nevertheless, this is confusing since the scent is oversweet and artificial but the label says "no sugars", "no artificials". So I'm wondering... Ok, the palate serves sweet fruit winegum, as well, with especially strawberry but also a bit of raspberry and blueberry. A whisper of green tea lingers in the background. The finish is fast. Overall, very sweet soft-drink-like stuff. The mouthfeel is light, sappy, soft-drink-like, lip-glueing and synthetic. Despite what the label argues. Now, I have a problem with the rating: should I believe the label or my own senses? I decide that I go with my instinct and disregard the marketing people's buzzwords. This tastes artificial in my mind and it's not to my liking.

C’est pas bon !
