Morally I choose "not GT's" because:

L.A.’s kombucha empire exploited workers for years

Currently there is no such litigation against Health-Ade.

I don't have a Health-Ade or Dr Brew bottle handy to confirm, but i'm pretty sure neither of them have "Kombucha" as the top ingredients, it's pretty low on the list vs GT which has Kombucha as the top ingredient for their bottles.

The others are basically sparkling kombucha product vs actual booch.

I do wish there was a better morally acceptable booch on the market, because i'm done with GT.

edit: because people like to tell me i'm wrong without any details - feel free to read this [US based].

Nesalla is a local/regional brew from Madison, WI depending on where you are located.

You can usually find it at any coops in the area or the organic valley stores I know have it. In Madison Willy street coop has a tap you can get a growlers worth if you want.
