July Event - Tasting Day with The Cambucha!

The Cambucha tasting event:

Visit Daily Bread on Saturday 22nd July 2023 between 11.15am and 4pm for our next tasting event! Try some premium kombucha, hand-crafted in the rural outskirts of Cambridge by The Cambucha! Meet The Cambucha’s team, Łukasz and Kasia - a husband and wife duo passionate about great foods and healthy living.

Try The Cambucha’s premium hand-crafted kombucha in 3 delicious flavours:

Raspberry - slowly fermented with a blend of premium teas and real raspberries (yep, we went heavy on them!). It is deliciously tangy, has a long-lasting flavour and just the right amount of effervescence to tickle your palate. We don't use anything that shouldn't be there (no flavourings, no colourings, no preservatives, no sweeteners).

Ginger & Lemon - infused with whole real lemons and freshly grated ginger root. Zesty and invigorating. More bubbly than our other products, just to give more of a kick.

Original - the simplest recipe, yet probably the most intriguing flavour. 

A blend of three exquisite teas - each contributing to its rich and full-bodied flavour. Darjeeling tea from West Bengal, provides delicate and complex fruity flavours with subtle musky spiciness. Ceylon tea from Dimbula region brings bold and fresh flavour with a smooth taste. Lastly, Oolong tea gives deep raisin and ripe fruit aromas to complete the perfect combination that makes Cambucha so irresistibly delicious.  Carefully fermented for nearly a month this product has wonderfully balanced sourness with some smooth tannins and texture just on the verge between still and sparkling, not unlike best vintage cider. 

We hope to see you on Saturday!
