As per the AB-45 Hemp Bill passed by California Governor Gavin Newsom on October 6, 2021, inclusion of hemp and cannabinoids (e.g., CBD), extracts, or derivatives of hemp in food and beverages, dietary supplements, cosmetics, and processed pet food provided that they, among other things, contain less than 0.3% THC was made legal. Soultopia is a company that manufactures water-soluble cannabinoids (CBDs) for our products and therefore we require regular access to raw hemp that can be processed into our products including cannabis beverages, and oils.
As a legally registered organization in Napa, CA, Soultopia was denied the right to sell our hemp products at the local farmers' markets. The company has already challenged the Napa farmers markets decision to deny our application, and we would like to throw light on the local farmers market blocking the community's access to our hemp products. Soultopia has procured all necessary permits and is already for sale at local retailers, and in spite of everything, Soultopia is still facing heavy resistance from the local farmers' market in Napa. Soultopia urges the local authorities and news organizations to shed light on California’s AB-45 Hemp Bill and the 2018 Hemp Farm Bill which makes hemp legal across the country, with the hope of bringing more access to consumers while educating them on the benefits of Hemp.
"Soultopia is a Hemp Beverage Company started by two local Napa residents. We have strived to create a safe, legal, and compliant product made exclusively with California-produced ingredients. We are launching: Four Hemp Live Resin Beverages: Hibiscus Lemonade, Lavender Lemonade, Root Beer, and Vanilla Cream. All beverages include 30 milligrams of Hemp Live Resin", said Charlie Crebs of Soultopia.
AB-45 Hemp bill defines the maximum inclusion of “THC and comparable cannabinoid”, and excludes from the definition of THC any THC isomer that does not cause intoxication. The law, however, does not provide any guidance on maximum serving sizes, active cannabinoid concentration per serving size, the number of servings per container, and similar requirements for foods and beverages, although it provides the Department with the authority to issue regulations on these issues.
The global Cannabis/Hemp beverages market is surging. The global cannabis beverages market is projected to grow from $915.06 million in 2021 to $19 billion in 2028 at a CAGR of 54.31% in the forecast period. Soultopia is emerging as a leading player in the cannabis beverage market across the United States and hopes to clear the path for Hemp businesses to be free to conduct business at any farmers market or any retailers across the nation to grow their business further.
