The JZT Ferments story

JZT grew out of a friendship that has lasted almost a lifetime – but above all out of the ambition to take the culture of non-alcoholic drinks in the Czech Republic to a new level. Jirka and the twins Zdenek and Tom always looked for quality, authenticity and a taste experience without compromise. They first came across kombucha during their studies in North America and immediately understood that it was not just a trend but a new standard of modern drinking.

Back home they found that the local offer simply did not match what they wanted to drink themselves. So instead of waiting, they started creating. Home experiments gradually turned into a precisely tuned recipe that held its own against the best of the world fermentation scene. At one point it was clear this would not be just a hobby. JZT Ferments was born.

Today JZT is a modern fermentation brand built on craft, open fermentation and rigorous quality control of every batch. Kombucha made in small batches, unpasteurised, complex in taste and visually clean. We work with progressive companies, premium gastronomy and brands that want to offer their clients more than ordinary soft drinks – a functional, local product with strong design.

We keep innovating, developing new flavours and pushing the boundaries of what kombucha can taste and look like. JZT is a brand that connects craft, aesthetics and a modern lifestyle.
