Best Jun Tea Supplies

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Jun ferments green tea and honey rather than black tea and sugar, and it prefers cooler temperatures than kombucha. That changes what you need: a jun-specific culture, raw honey, and green tea that has not been flavored or treated. Suppliers differ in culture provenance, in whether it ships live, and in how honestly the difference from kombucha is described, which is a fair signal of whether the culture is really jun. We weighed culture sourcing and clarity of instructions first, since jun is easy to sell as a rebranded kombucha SCOBY. Honey quality and green tea suitability counted as well. A live jun culture with starter liquid suits anyone already comfortable running kombucha who wants a lighter, faster drink. If you have never fermented tea before, start with kombucha and come back to jun later.
