Stargazer Kombucha was founded in 2019 by Alison and Mike Schmitt. This boutique craft kombucha business based in Albuquerque, New Mexico is now for sale.

Brewing a traditional form of kombucha, the company selects fine single-origin teas and ferments them slowly in small batches, expressing the complex flavors of each tea without adding fruit juices, purees, or syrups. Every variety is made from just four simple ingredients: filtered water, organic raw cane sugar, live kombucha culture, and loose leaf tea.

Flavors include:

Over the past six years, the business has expanded its product line, grown a loyal following, and secured numerous wholesale accounts. The kombucha is highly regarded locally and has received national recognition, winning two Good Food Awards in 2024. It is currently sold on tap and in cans at over 20 retailers in the Albuquerque/Santa Fe metro area. The business is currently majority woman-, minority-, and immigrant-owned.

Due to recent health challenges and changes in family commitments, Alison has decided to sell the business and pass it on to new owners with the vision to develop its full potential. It is well-positioned to scale into a standout regional—or national—brand.

Brewing operations are housed in a leased 2,000 sq ft brewery in Albuquerque’s North Valley. The landlord has indicated a willingness to work with the buyer on a new lease. Alternatively, the business can be easily relocated, as the branding is universally themed and not tied to a specific location.

The current owners are willing to assist the buyer to ensure a smooth transition.
