Building Winning Beverages ‘101’.

Winning beverages start with Good Culture

Good Culture’s fermented beverage ingredients provide the perfect, natural foundation on which to build your product. Pairing perfectly with endless ingredients, sweeteners and flavours to produce winning beverages of almost any description, our fermented ingredients’ benefits align brilliantly with the needs of today’s consumers and manufacturers:

  • Water, cultures of bacteria and yeast, sugar and a nutrient source - all from only natural sources. That’s all you’ll find in the ingredients list for every Good Culture product.

  • The fermentation process converts sugars into organic acids and other flavour compounds, maximising flavour complexity and leaving virtually no residual sugar.

  • Fermenting at scale is difficult and often results in inconsistencies between batches. Our proprietary long-aged process solves this, ensuring quality and flavour profiles are always the same.

  • Fermented beverage ingredients with simple, easily recognisable ingredients that support consumer demand for transparency, simplicity, and health-conscious choices.

  • Fermented drinks align with functional beverage trends: drinks that do more than hydrate. Consumers often see them as tools to support and supplement their personal health & wellness goals.

  • Fermentation offers several natural benefits for extending product shelf life. With up to 6-years shelf-life in ambient conditions, Good Culture ingredients offer unparalleled benefits to manufacturers.

  • In addition to expanding a manufacturer’s potential market reach, Kosher & Halal certification adds assurance that alcohol – a natural by-product of the fermentation process – is absent.

  • There’s no need to extend your factory footprint, buy new tanks or even a new factory. Good Culture products offer up to 30x strength of organic acids, eliminating large capital outlays to increase capacity.
