0049 CLUB #26.01 // MARK x VEDRÀ KOMBUCHA – FROM CLOSET BREWING TO ISLAND CULTURE

FROM MALIBU KITCHENS TO IBIZA MARKETS.





In this episode, I sit down with Mark — founder of Vedra
Kombucha.





What started as home brewing in California back in 2009 slowly
turned into something real. No big plan. No clear roadmap. Just
curiosity, consistency & showing up.





In 2013, Mark moved to Ibiza — bringing kombucha to an island
that didn’t even know what kombucha was.


Selling bottles at markets in San Juan, San Rafael & San
Miguel. Talking to people. Letting them taste. Building trust,
one conversation at a time.





Fast forward to today — a growing team, organic ingredients,
traditional brewing methods & a brand that’s deeply rooted in
the island’s lifestyle.





But this isn’t just about kombucha.


It’s about building something from nothing.


About figuring things out as you go.


About choosing a slower, more conscious way of living — in a
world that’s constantly speeding up.





Between dusty market days & clean production setups, gut
feeling & real decisions. Between LA energy & Ibiza calm.





We talk about early struggles, about introducing something
completely unknown, about health, alcohol & shifting
perspectives — personally & culturally.





About flavors, process & creativity. About mistakes, growth
& staying true to your thing. No shortcuts. No hype. Just
real steps over time. Learning by doing. A conversation about
patience, lifestyle & doing things your own way.
