Meet the brand

Born in Japan. Raised in the South.

We’re not the ones running today, but FKTea is still fuel for you. Here in Leadville, we go by FKTea. Brew Japanese green tea, organic yerba mate, and local honey for whoever’s doing the waiting, watching, and cheering right alongside them.

  1. 01
    Batch-brewed, not powderedEvery can starts as real Japanese green tea, steeped in small batches. Never from powder or concentrate.
  2. 02
    Yerba mate, clean focusOrganic yerba mate joins the batch-brewed tea for a clean, natural kind of focus and energy.
  3. 03
    70mg, a steady liftThe OG and Sweet blends carry 70mg of natural caffeine, built for a steady lift instead of a spike.
  4. 04
    Let’s go local, honey.Southern roots. Louisiana honey ties the tea back to where FKTea was born: four founders, four dads, and Southern to the core.

“We promise it tastes delicious.”
