feel free CLASSIC label refresh reflects Botanic Tonics’ commitment to going further than the category requires—empowering consumers with clearer information and greater confidence at every step.

BROKEN ARROW, OK – April 29, 2026 – Botanic Tonics, the leader in kava-centric botanical supplements, today unveiled an updated label for its flagship tonic, feel free CLASSIC®. The new label reinforces Botanic Tonics’ commitment to transparency, consumer education, and responsible enjoyment.

Rooted in Responsibility

The new feel free CLASSIC label delivers clear, complete product information—including serving sizes, servings per container, and active ingredients—designed to be understood at a glance. Similar to voluntarily raising the age restriction on feel free CLASSIC to 21 years and older, the new label sets a higher benchmark for consumer-first product communications in the category.

Voluntarily exceeding industry standards, the updated label also includes:

  • Enhanced front-and-back readability covering ingredients, usage directions, warning language, and a 21+ advisory
  • Usage directions with serving lines
  • A QR code linking directly to product information

Each enhancement reflects Botanic Tonics’ conviction that informed consumers are the foundation of a responsible, sustainable category.

Beyond Compliance: Raising the Bar for Consumer Clarity

“feel free CLASSIC’s new label is not a one-time effort: it’s part of our ongoing commitment to consumer education and transparency,” said Cameron Korehbandi, CEO of Botanic Tonics. “Compliance is the floor, not the ceiling. Consumer transparency is non-negotiable as we continue to set the standard for the entire category.”

Botanicals Backed by Tradition, Guided by Responsibility

Made with noble kava root and natural whole kratom leaf, feel free CLASSIC contains no synthetic active ingredients, no alcohol, and no chemical extracts. feel free CLASSIC delivers calm, focused energy that supports both productivity and well-being.

feel free CLASSIC is manufactured in the U.S. in an FDA-registered, cGMP-certified facility. Each batch undergoes multiple tests for active ingredient consistency and contaminant safety.

Disclaimer Warning

feel free CLASSIC contains natural kratom leaf which, like caffeine and alcohol, can be habit-forming and harmful if consumed irresponsibly. Avoid if you have a history of substance abuse.

Caution: Not for consumption by or sale to persons under the age of 21. May interact with certain medications: consult a licensed, qualified healthcare professional before use. Do not consume with excessive alcohol. This product is not intended for those who are sensitive to the active ingredients or women who are pregnant, nursing, or trying to become pregnant.
