Here’s a great note from loyal reader Craig. Kombucha is a tasty fermented tea:

Hey Jason,

Thought you might be interested in this.  The band Vampire Weekend that played last week love Kombucha.  Smart kids from Columbia University.  They found out about our local Buchi Kombucha brewed by Jeannine Buscher and Sarah Schomber and ABSOLUTELY fell in love with it.  They have asked for extra cases to take on the remainder of the US tour … and even want some sent to their homes afterward.

Here’s a photo of the bass player and drummer drinking Buchi in front of their tour bus with the ladies (Jeannine on left, Sarah on right).
