Proudly Produced in the Finger Lakes
Hive-95 — Sparkling Honey & Grape Juice
A non-alcoholic beverage made from FLX Grapes and raw Finger Lakes honey — from what the region already grows, and from what would otherwise go to waste.
Batch 001 ships soon. Be there.
Inside the Can
Two ingredients.
Zero compromise.
Ingredient One
FLX Grapes
Surplus Finger Lakes grapes that had no buyer. Saved from the field, pressed at peak.
Ingredient Two
Raw Honey
From working Finger Lakes apiaries. The bees pollinate the same vineyards that grow the grapes.
Nothing else. Nothing wasted.
Developed in Partnership With
Cornell University CALS
Formulated at Cornell's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences in Geneva, NY — the Finger Lakes' historic agricultural research home for over 140 years.
The Story
The bee and the vine are one system.
The grandfather of one of our founders kept 15 hives in West Virginia in the 1980s. His honey is part of the founder's earliest memories. Decades later, the legacy is restored — this time in the Finger Lakes, where the same bees that produce our honey pollinate the very vineyards that grow our grapes.
Hive-95 is what happens when you build a beverage around that truth: surplus FLX Grapes that would otherwise rot in the field, honey from working hives, and a region that has been quietly perfecting both for generations.
“The bees will provide.”
Operation FLX
Why this. Why now.
Hive-95 isn't just a beverage — it's a working response to four converging pressures on American agriculture and the way we drink.
The Bee
of US honey bee colonies collapse every year. Small beekeepers need committed buyers to survive. Hive-95 was built to be one of them.
The Farm
of New York's grape harvest has no buyer. Hive-95 turns that surplus into a premium product — every can a vote against waste.
The Local Economy
of regional economic activity generated for every $1 spent on local agriculture. 100% of our ingredients come from Upstate New York.
The Market
of legal-drinking-age US consumers are moderating alcohol. This isn't a wellness trend — it's a generational realignment.
Upstate Sourced
Every ingredient — honey, grapes, water — sourced within driving distance of where the cans are filled. Farm to fridge, literally.
ABV
Fully non-alcoholic. Built for the dinner table, the trail, the boat, the morning after — and for anyone who's been searching for a grown-up alternative.
