Brew Dr. creates high-quality beverages that explore the potential of tea, from organic raw kombucha to naturally energizing yerba mate. In 2008, Matt Thomas began brewing kombucha in the kitchen of his teahouse in Portland, Oregon. From leaf to bottle, the company takes inspiration from its heritage in tea, making deliciously refreshing beverages with a difference you can taste. Brew Dr. is helping people discover how good kombucha can be, referring not only to its quality approach, but to the company’s commitment to its communities, its people, and the planet. Brew Dr. is proud to be the first national kombucha company to become both carbon neutral and a certified B-corporation. Brew Dr. sells its organic, raw kombucha in all 50 states and Canada, in a continuous effort to make better-for-you beverages readily accessible to everyone.
