MEET FREYA
Our founder and head fermentalist at Fix8.
A woman on a mission: to craft and create the best gut-health drinks on the UK market.
After developing a kombucha obsession at university, she quickly eschewed a career in the city and turned her parents London flat into a kombucha micro-brewery.
SHANGHAI
According to Eastern medicine: good health
and longevity all starts in the gut.

Whilst living in Shanghai for a year abroad of study, Freya was introduced to kombucha by her Chinese Medicine Doctor, who referred to the drink as ‘the tea of immortality’ for its health-giving properties. It was love at first sip, and the fixation begun.

Back home in 2014, she struggled to find any quality kombucha in shops. After devouring books on fermentation, studying gut health, and homebrewing kombucha under her university desk, a few friends suggested she start selling it to others.
The rest, as they say, is history.

As part of her learning, Freya travelled to meet kombucha makers all over: from Bali to Berlin, Portland to Hawaii.
She also spent time working at one of the world's most forward-thinking fermentation hubs in Berkeley, California, before launching Fix8 in 2018, and continues to teach kombucha workshops across the UK.

OUR KOMBUCHA
Craft kombucha with science-backed probiotic cultures and added vitamin C. Supercharged drinking if you like.
Kombucha is a fermented tea drink that originates from Asia thousands of years ago. It is made using four simple ingredients: tea, water, sugar and SCOBY (symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast).
These four ingredients go through a process of Fermentation: the sugar is consumed by the yeast, transforming into good bacteria, organic acids, enzymes, and B Vitamins.
It’s cold, fizzy and refreshing. Just how all soft drinks should be. We craft our kombuchas using the finest ingredients, completely natural and low calorie. Our unique addition of Vitamin C and science-backed probiotic cultures make us the only kombucha on the UK market to have this unique benefit.
