Details: The Millennium Products settlement will resolve a 2010 class action lawsuit, entitled Ilana Gauss v. Millennium Products, Inc., that alleges Millennium falsely stated that its GT and Synergy Kombucha Tea beverages would contain “a trace amount of alcohol (less than 0.5%)” when some bottles contained as much as 1-3% alcohol — equal to or greater than some brands of beer.

The GT Kombucha Tea class action lawsuit further charges Millennium Products with marketing, displaying and selling the beverages as if they were non-alcoholic soft drinks or tea, including to children and persons who would not knowingly have consumed alcoholic beverages, such as at work or before driving. 

Millennium denies any wrongdoing but has agreed to settle the Synergy and Kombucha class action lawsuit to avoid ongoing litigation.

Under the proposed Synergy and GT Kombucha class action settlement, Millennium has agreed to provide full cash refunds to Class Members who can provide proof of purchase, such as an itemized retail receipt or credit/debit card statement that shows the beverages purchased, the date and the place of purchase. Class Members who cannot provide proof of purchase can file a claim to receive up to $6 in coupons that can be used to purchase any of Millennium’s “Enlightened GT’s Kombucha” or “Enlightened Synergy” beverages. These beverages are produced with a different formula than the settlement beverages to minimize the risk that their alcohol content will rise above 0.5%.

Class Members of the Synergy and GT Kombucha class action settlement include all persons who purchased the beverages in the U.S. between September 8, 2006 and September 1, 2010.

To receive your cash refund or beverage coupons, you must submit a valid claim form and any proof of purchase either online at www.GTSettlement.com or mailed to the Settlement Administrator no later than December 22, 2011, or 30 days after the Court’s final approval of the Kombucha settlement. A Final Fairness Hearing will be held November 22, 2011.
