The PR%F Awards, a buyer-judged industry event, awarded the Rocket Peak flavor a Double Gold medal with a score of 98. This recognition marks a significant milestone for the Kenosha-based brand as it navigates a competitive market alongside traditional alcohol. Beyond the top prize, the brand’s Cottondew Clouds also secured a Double Gold, while the Free Spirit bottle and Tangilime Grove earned Gold and Silver medals, respectively. Judges evaluated entries on both taste and packaging design, placing Highlandia in a rare category for hemp-derived products.
Following the success of its original Free Spirit Elixir, which exceeded sales projections, Lifted Made is expanding the portfolio with two new 750mL offerings: Goldentea Trails and Limoncello Coast. Each bottle contains 170mg of THC and 34mg of CBD. The company is scaling its distribution rapidly, moving from its Wisconsin origins to retail shelves in 11 states, including New York, Texas, and Florida, in under six months. CEO Nick Warrender noted that the high scores serve as validation for the brand’s formulation strategy as it continues to grow its national footprint.
