Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

About Sis Got Tea

Who are you? What is Sis Got Tea?
Sis Got Tea is Louisville, KY's, Black-owned, LGBTQ-owned, woman-owned tea business. We serve the community as a safe, sober, social space and tea cafe. We have all kinds of tea blends and merch, and we also have a cozy seating area for you to sip tea, chat with friends, and even host an event or two.

We also host events for the community. We focus on LGBTQ-themed and Black-themed events, and they're always sober. From poetry slams, to drag shows, to workshops, we host any event that we can.

Why so much emphasis on being Black-owned, LGBTQ-owned, and woman-owned?
It's important for us to emphasize that because historically, Black folks, LGBTQ folks, and women have really struggled to own businesses due to systemic barriers. As a Black-owned, LGBTQ-owned, woman-owned business, we have faced a multitude of barriers that other businesses haven't faced.

Stating that we're Black-owned, LGBTQ-owned, and woman-owned is a statement of pride. Despite all of the adversities we've faced, we made this business. We've made it this far. And for some Black folks, LGBTQ folks, and women, knowing that our business is Black-owned, LGBTQ-owned, and woman-owned is inspiring.
