Soculent is proudly crafted by Fermentit, a Romanian start-up, born out of a passion for botanical soft drinks, naturally fermented and alcohol-free. We are a small team with experience in gastronomy, entrepreneurship, and product development.

The beginnings

The story of Soculent began with the realization that local options for non-alcoholic refreshments were limited. Elderflower soda caught our attention with its authentic taste and the sense of nostalgia it evokes, instantly transporting us back to childhood, to the hills of Transylvania, among the elderflowers.

It takes passion to give our creations clarity, freshness, and flavor. Passion is the key ferment. We make elderflower soda because we are truly in love with the taste of slow-fermented elderflower.

Mission & Vision

Our goal is to offer you the authentic quality of traditionally fermented elderflower soda whether enjoyed in its original variant or in carefully crafted blends that complement it perfectly.

Romania is known for its many cultural treasures, and we’re convinced that slow-fermented elderflower soda can join that list. Our goal is for SOCULENT to be the charming elderflower soda that wins hearts far beyond our borders.
