Meet Our Members – Hola Kombucha (MEX)

Fernando Velazquez Mendieta, Hola Kombucha, Yucatán, Mexio

Q: When did you first discover kombucha?

A: It started as a project to further understand Kombucha. My mother used to brew homemade kombucha with no notes nor measurements and sometimes it came out awesome other times it came out barely drinkable. I wanted to come out with a process and a recipe to have it always be the best and as stable as possible. It started with 2 glass containers of SCOBY then 4 then 20, we started as 2 friends then 5 and now we are a team of over 15 people.

Q: What is your favorite flavor of kombucha? 

A: When I crave kombucha far from home I always lean towards flavors with mint in some way.

Q: What is your former/current other life or career? 

A: I studied Physics and work as an Electrical Engineering Consultant.

Q: What is a saying that you live by?

A: ‘Buena Vida, Buena Bebida’ – It translates as Good Life, Good Drink and it’s a fun way to be Mindful of the present as the good things in life can be as simple as a cold kombucha on a warm day.
