Momo Kombucha releases green mandarin flavour
UK beverage brand Momo Kombucha is collaborating with high-end grocery chain Natoora to release Carmelo’s Green Mandarin Kombucha.
Using the rare tardivo di ciaculli mandarin found in parts of Sicily, which have a very small harvest window of October to November, and taking its name from a grower of said mandarins, the drink combines citrus and kombucha for a new taste.
The collaborative drink is available now from the Momo and Natoora, as well as Gail’s Bakery, Selfridges, Planet Organic and Whole Foods Market. It is sold at an RRP of £4.50 per 330ml glass bottle.
“We’re thrilled to launch our new Green Mandarin Kombucha as part of our seasonal collaboration with Natoora. These green mandarins, sourced from Carmelo’s beautiful orchards in Sicily, bring an exceptional, bold flavour that makes this kombucha truly unique. Huge credit to our brewers for capturing the rich, vibrant essence of the fruit and allowing it to shine through so brilliantly. We’re also proud that sales of this kombucha will support Natoora’s Farm Fund, a vital initiative empowering young farmers to make a positive impact on sustainable agriculture,” said Momo founder Josh Puddle.
