Herbal. Floral. Distinctly Its Own.
Lavender Kombucha is WiskTea Recipe's most distinctive botanical expression — a brew that carries the unmistakable character of real lavender with a refinement that sets it apart from everything else in the range.
Lavender is a polarising botanical in the world of beverages. Done carelessly, it overwhelms — soapy, synthetic, and cloying in the way that artificial lavender flavouring always is. Done with craft and the right ingredient pairing, it is something else entirely: herbal, gently floral, and deeply calming, with a complexity that lingers long after the sip.
WiskTea Recipe pairs real lavender with oolong tea — a deliberate choice that defines the entire experience. Oolong's creamy, partially oxidised complexity is the ideal counterpart to lavender's herbaceous intensity. It grounds the floral notes without suppressing them, bringing warmth and body to a profile that might otherwise feel thin. The kombucha fermentation adds a gentle tang that keeps the lavender from tipping into sweetness — preserving its herbal edge while softening it just enough to be approachable.
The result is calm, refined, and unmistakably Provençal in character. A kombucha for those who know exactly what they like.

For those with a taste for the distinctly refined.
- Real lavender, no synthetic shortcuts — the herbal, gently floral character in every bottle comes from actual lavender, not artificial flavouring; the difference is immediately apparent
- Oolong as the perfect anchor — creamy, partially oxidised oolong grounds lavender's intensity without suppressing it; a pairing chosen with care and executed with precision
- Calm without being sweet — the kombucha fermentation preserves lavender's herbal edge, preventing the sweetness that plagues lesser lavender drinks
- A flavour explorer's reward — Lavender is one of the most distinctive profiles in the WiskTea Recipe range; if you appreciate botanicals at their most refined, this is your bottle
- European sensibility, Southeast Asian craft — Provençal lavender character brewed with the same small-batch precision that defines every WiskTea Recipe expression
- Clean label, zero shortcuts — no preservatives, no artificial sweeteners, no synthetic additives of any kind
- Naturally fizzy — live SCOBY fermentation produces real carbonation, not added CO₂
Best served well-chilled. Refrigerate before serving and pour slowly into a wide glass. Lavender Kombucha's herbal complexity opens up beautifully with a moment to breathe — allow it to settle in the glass before the first sip and let the fragrance arrive before the flavour does.
Before opening: Gently invert the bottle once to redistribute any settled culture. Do not shake — natural carbonation builds pressure and shaking may cause overflow. Open slowly, releasing pressure gradually before pouring.
Suggested pairings:
- French and Mediterranean cuisine — the Provençal character of lavender finds natural resonance alongside ratatouille, roasted lamb, and herb-forward dishes
- Honey and almond desserts — lavender and honey is a classic pairing; lavender kombucha alongside honey cake, financiers, or almond tarts is deeply considered
- Soft cheeses — brie, camembert, and fresh chèvre complement lavender's floral warmth without overwhelming it
- Evening wind-down — a calming alternative to an evening cup of herbal tea; light, refined, and deeply relaxing
Serving occasions: Relaxation, European-inspired dining, afternoon tea, evening wind-down, gifting for botanical lovers
Storage: Keep refrigerated at 4–7°C at all times. Consume within 7 days of opening. Keeps for up to 6 months when stored chilled.
