How anti-Asian sentiment has exploded, but the East has made some of your favorite things.

It would be impossible for us to claim we’re all about good living, love, or being the best you can be, and then go silent when uncomfortable things and injustices take place. This past year has become an inflection point for so many things. Political upheaval, social injustice, healthcare, our economy, and all of this just scratches the surface.

It isn’t enough for a drink to simply taste great anymore. The entire beverage market is moving toward functionality. Consumers not only desire but expect that what they put into their bodies should benefit them in a myriad of ways. Philippe Trinh and Julian Lesser, owners of the Hudson Valley's Seek North Kombucha, recognized this trend and have strived to concoct drinks with incredible flavor — and a work ethic of their own.

Philippe and Julian have been together for over 15 years, and they probably work so well together because they both have a serial drive to follow their hearts no matter what. While it might have culminated in your favorite kombucha, that’s not where it started.
