Marie Looyens studied Cultural Studies and Curation at Central Saint Martins in London, where she started exploring the city’s rich culinary scene and consequently experimenting in her home kitchen.
Lena Vandam’s academic and athletic pursuits led her to the United States, where she majored in Philosophy, Film and Data Analytics. Lena’s fascination with kombucha arose from her quest for healthier alternatives and thus also evolved into homebrewing experiments.
The duo have been long-time friends who originally crossed paths in Antwerp during their high school days. After being separated by their international journeys, they are brought back together through a mutual interest in fermented beverages.
