	The first Swiss Kombucha brand born in 2013! A tasty alcohol-free sparkling tea, organic, natural, and traditionally fermented. With Urban Kombucha, thanks to over 10 years of R&D and expertise, we've made a simple promise: to offer a traditionally delicious fermented kombucha, with bold but accessible flavors, low in sugar, consistent in taste, and ALWAYS guaranteed alcohol-free.	La Cave de la Crausaz is a family-run business located in the heart of the Féchy vineyards. For five generations, the Bettems family has been cultivating its vines with passion, producing authentic wines that reflect the terroir of Féchy. Committed to the environment, the winery has been reusing bottles for nearly a century. Today, around 85% of the bottles sold are collected, washed directly on-site at the winery, and then reused. A sustainable practice that reduces waste while supporting short supply chains.
