Kvass yeast is active baker's or special yeast (sometimes mixed with lactic bacteria) that ferments a wort of rye bread, malt or concentrate, giving kvass its fizz, sweet-sour taste and characteristic bready aroma. It is dissolved in warm sweetened wort, left to ferment, and the resulting sediment is used as a starter for the next batches.

Rye kvass is one of the oldest Slavic drinks, a symbol of home comfort and traditions. Its origins date back centuries when rye bread was used to make a refreshing fermented drink. Kvass has a tangy, slightly sweet taste with bread notes and a subtle aroma of raisins. Due to natural fermentation, it is rich in vitamins and beneficial microelements, strengthening the body and improving digestion. This drink perfectly quenches thirst on hot days and is traditionally used in Russian cuisine as a base for okroshka and other cold soups. Its preparation requires patience, but the result is worth the wait – a refreshing, invigorating kvass with rich flavor will be a true decoration for any table.
