HighBridge Premium Partners with Paustis Wine Company for Beverage Distribution
HighBridge Premium, a rising star in the cannabis beverage market, is making waves by partnering with the esteemed Paustis Wine Company to distribute its line of Delta-9 THC-infused beverages throughout Minnesota. This strategic alliance aims to strengthen the brand's presence in a state that has recently legalized Delta-9 THC, marking a significant step in HighBridge's expansion plan.
Since its inception in 2019, HighBridge Premium has focused exclusively on developing a diverse range of high-quality infused beverages. With this new partnership, the company now boasts distribution networks in seven states and aims to penetrate eight more markets by the end of the year.
James Hunter, the Founder and CEO of HighBridge Premium, stated, "Achieving a strong distribution foothold in Minnesota has always been a priority for us. Following the legalization of Delta-9 THC, we planned to transfer our production to Surly Brewing in Minneapolis and establish a warehouse with PinPoint 360 in Edina. It was essential to find the right distributor, and Paustis emerged as the perfect partner."
Product Lineup
The current lineup of HighBridge includes:
- - 3 Faux Beers™: A trio of flavors mimicking traditional beer, each with different THC levels (5, 8, or 10 mg Delta-9 THC).
- - 2 Re-Frsh™ Botanicals Seltzers: Two invigorating flavors made with herbal and fruit blends, each containing 5 mg Delta-9 THC.
- - 3 Majical Ice TeaZ™: Three non-carbonated real tea options created in collaboration with actor and cannabis advocate Jim Belushi. Each flavor pays homage to Jim's Chicago and Blues roots, available in THC strengths of 5, 8, or 10 mg.
Paustis Wine Company brings a wealth of experience, having maintained a stellar reputation for quality and integrity over its 50-year history. Bill Paustis, the company's president, expressed enthusiasm, stating, "When entering this market, we sought a product and partner that shared our values and respect for the industry. HighBridge was the obvious choice!"
Commitment to Quality and Innovation
This partnership not only prioritizes distribution but emphasizes social responsibility and ethical business practices. HighBridge’s collaboration with Jim Belushi highlights the brand's commitment to creativity and innovation within the infused beverage industry. Jim noted, "Our partnership with HighBridge transcends a mere business agreement; it’s about creating something magical together—something truly extraordinary for the Hemp Delta-9 landscape. And with Paustis on board, we have solidified our trifecta of excellence!"
The Future is Bright
As HighBridge Premium continues to innovate within the cannabis sector, it aims to expand its product offerings even further in 2025. With ten market-ready items and plans to introduce additional products, the brand is on an ambitious path to becoming a multi-state organization with international reach.
HighBridge products are currently available in several states, including Florida, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Georgia, and North Carolina, with aspirations to expand into ten more states by the end of this year. As consumer demand for Delta-9 THC beverages grows, this partnership could serve as a game-changer for both companies, driving significant traffic in a rapidly evolving market.
For consumers seeking quality and innovative Delta-9 THC beverages in Minnesota, the combination of HighBridge Premium and Paustis Wine Company promises to deliver excellence and exciting new experiences in the world of cannabis drinks.
