San Diego, CA — December 14, 2024

Fuel & Elevate, the visionary hemp-derived functional beverage brand, is thrilled to announce its unprecedented success at the 2024 America’s Best Hemp Beverage Competition. The company walked away with an impressive nine Double Gold Medals, including four "Best of the West" titles, four "America's Best" recognitions, and a highly coveted Best in Show award for its Café Mocha blend.

Fuel & Elevate submitted four of its hemp-infused instant functional coffees, all of which were awarded top honors. These included the flavors Keto-Cream & Sugar, Vanilla Latte, Salted Caramel, and the award-winning Café Mocha, which took home the Best in Show distinction.

“In a rapidly growing and increasingly competitive market, we couldn’t be prouder to have Fuel & Elevate recognized by America's Best," said Michael Hayford, Chief Imagineer of Fuel & Elevate. "This accomplishment proves that an adult functional beverage can taste amazing while enhancing cognitive function, reducing stress, and boosting energy. Or, as we like to say, ‘Fuel Your Body, Elevate Your Mind!”

A Prestigious Award for an Innovative Brand

America's Best Spirits is one of the most respected competitions in the beverage industry, judged by a panel of premier sommeliers, retail buyers, and industry experts. Winning nine Double Gold Medals demonstrates the outstanding quality, innovation, and effectiveness of Fuel & Elevate's products. These accolades highlight the brand’s commitment to crafting beverages that resonate with consumers' health-conscious lifestyles while delivering exceptional taste.

Fuel & Elevate’s success is driven by its unique formulation, including hemp-derived THC and CBD, nootropics, adaptogens, energy boosters, and all-natural ingredients.
