CanvasRebel: Claire Irie
I would like to be remembered as having honored my mom’s legacy and creating my own, one that my mom would be proud of my legacy. I’m not really certain what people will say after I have gone home. the majority, I sense will say they miss my energy and respected my tenacity for not giving up, even when the world was telling me to quit. I leaned in and handed it all over to God and that made my Faith strong.
Meet Claire Irie
Our story started in the mid 1990’s in Jamaica, West Indies when my mother, Lupa. was first introduced to brewing kombucha. Over time she fine-tuned her craft to create a wonderful low sugar beverage that later became what is known as LUPA’S BOOCH KOMBUCHA, Lupa’s Kitchen was officially launched in 2010 and around 2018 we became one of the original Kombucha companies to transition from using amber bottles to canning our kombucha.

I was introduced to kombucha through my mom & founder of Lupa’s Kombucha. She is one of the originals and started brewing back in the late 90’s when we lived in Jamaica, WI. Our current flavor profiles are heavily influenced by our Caribbean background. Passion Fruit, Hibiscus and Ginger Turmeric. Super smooth and refreshing!
