Lineup

FIGA Kombucha's lineup includes Rose, Jasmine, Earl Grey, Hojicha, Lapsang Souchong, Milky Oolong, and Matcha kombucha.[1] FIGA Kombucha's seasonal sales patterns show Rose, Jasmine, and Earl Grey selling most in summer, while Hojicha and Lapsang Souchong are more popular in autumn.[1]

Philosophy

media

FIGA Kombucha builds each product around a single specific tea — such as Milky Oolong, Lapsang Souchong, or Earl Grey — treating tea as the star rather than a neutral base.[1] FIGA Kombucha uses a single-fermentation approach where the tea is the primary flavour source from the start, rather than adding fruits or spices in a second fermentation.[1]
