FBKT – Reinventing the Art of Tea

The story of FBKT is that of a group of epicureans who, in 2016, decided to reinvent the tea experience by infusing it with an artisanal soul and a breath of modernity.

It all began in the garage of Julien and Tasha, the founders of FBKT.
He, a former sommelier and instructor at the Institut Paul Bocuse, pursues flavors like a true craftsman of taste.
She, an experienced pharmacist and plant expert, knows how to combine benefits and pleasure in every infusion.

Passionate about travel and gastronomy, they gradually became true experts in tea tasting. Curious, bold, and driven by passion, they brought together other tea lovers who, like them, did not recognize themselves in the existing market. Tea that felt too standardized, too conventional, not alive enough.

Together, they set out to create a tea brand that truly reflects who they are: innovative, artisanal, committed, and above all… free-spirited.

At FBKT, every recipe is crafted with precision and hand-blended in our workshop in the Loire region of France. Our creations are inspired by French gastronomy, combining respect for tradition with limitless creativity. We are committed to offering premium, inventive and modern teas that appeal both to lovers of great classics and to explorers of new flavors.

But FBKT is much more than a tea brand. It is a philosophy — a mindset.

Our mission: to make tea accessible to everyone by breaking down its traditional codes. At FBKT, quality goes hand in hand with originality. Like the “T” in our signature, our creations have character and don’t take themselves too seriously.

What began as an agile start-up, where everyone rolled up their sleeves, has grown into a structured artisanal company driven by a passionate team. A team that, day after day, continues to grow the brand while staying true to its DNA: authenticity, craftsmanship, fairer trade, and eco-conscious commitment. A team of real people with real names: Chloé, Justine, Louis, Géraldine, Olivier, Céline, Pierrick, Flore, Manu, Nicole, Chacha, Momo, Estelle, Tasha and Julien.

FBKT is the story of women and men moving forward together, stronger, united by a shared vision of taste and connection.

Today, FBKT supports those who want to bring meaning to their business. We stand along side gourmet store creators and independent retailers looking for products that truly stand out: exceptional teas with strong values and identity.

Joining FBKT means choosing much more than just tea. It means choosing a brand that values your expertise, supports your project, and invites you to write your own story.

And because taste is constantly evolving, FBKT is now exploring new territories. Consumption habits are changing: customers are looking for more indulgent, more comforting drinks, with richer taste experiences. Matcha latte, golden latte, beetroot latte or spiced caramel latte… Artisanal milk-based drinks are emerging as a strong new trend in coffee shops, tea rooms and gourmet stores.

At FBKT, we don’t follow trends — we create them. Our artisanal powdered latte recipes are designed to offer independent retailers a premium alternative to traditional coffee, with a strong and distinctive identity.

For entrepreneurs in career transition, gourmet store creators and artisanal tea retailers, integrating these new trending hot beverages is becoming a real driver for growth.

FBKT supports this evolution by offering a global, coherent and modern range, enabling everyone to build a hybrid concept around tea, infusions and next-generation milk-based drinks.

🌿 With FBKT, create the trend.
