I picked up a bunch of kombucha from Cove this past week, while my mom was visiting, so that I could have something cold to drink in the evenings on the nights I was staying at her Airbnb. This was my favourite of the ones I tried. The watermelon is really apparent in the first half of the sip and it has a taste that’s a bit like a cross of the more mellow and refreshing light “watery” (pun not intended) flavours of actual melon mixed with the more sweet and sour taste of a watermelon Jolly Rancher. Equal parts natural and more ‘manufactured’…
My mom really hated this one because she said all she tasted was pickle juice, and while I think she was definitely exaggerating because of her dislike of vinegar-y flavours I have to admit that even I found the finish of this kombucha especially vinegary for a kombucha and even I tasted a little bit of a pickle-y funk. However, I actually enjoyed that aspect of the kombucha and I thought it made those front notes of watermelon a lot more interesting and dynamic.
mispelling of tea name?
This is what I get for late night tasting notes XD Fixed in the database ;)
