The Legend
Kombucha is known to have been around for centuries, probably a couple of millennia. No one knows exactly when and where. There are a couple of different stories about how this drink was born.
It is generally believed that it existed in 220 BC. C. in China, some believe that it dates back 4,500 years or more, and that the person who first made it was an Egyptian health witch, a person skilled in the art of fermentation, perhaps she was a healer who lived at the time of Pharaoh Khufu, the builder of the great pyramid.
There is evidence that mentions the presence of this drink in China during the Quin dynasty (220 BC) created for Emperor Qinshi Huangdi by a health witch.
Another story is that of Doctor Kombu, in Korea, who brought the drink to the Japanese emperor Inyoko in 414 AD. C. It is said that a witch in a town of Samurais, the warriors of ancient Japan, made the warriors wear it on their wine skins, since it gave them energy in battle.
Others say that a tribal witch put the fermented vinegar drink in the travel flasks of Genghis Khan and his armies. Taking it like this from Asia, through the Silk Road to Russia and then to all of Europe.
However, the most definite recorded history of Kombucha points to its beginnings in Russia and Ukraine in the late 19th century.
Legend has it that the witch is still alive, spreading the health benefits of her potion from southern Mexico to rest of the country with good intentions, wishing to reforest the intestinal flora of many. Wishing health and wellness to all.
Of course when we say "witch" we mean a person who heals, connected to mother earth, not a Halloween witch practicing magic.
