While there are plenty of [hemp-infused products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aslin-beer) that are now being introduced across various categories, Hin sets itself apart by drawing inspiration from a Celtic princess from 373BC. In her time, Princess Cambri Formosa used to teach the women in her clan to sew and weave with hemp to create everything from pieces of clothing to rope and sacks. Although hemp was an important commodity throughout the Tudor period, all cannabis was banned in the UK as of 1928. Now, thanks to [changes in UK legislation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hempbased-beverage), Hin is setting itself up to introduce "the return of the outlaw." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 43% | Activity: 76% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Hemp-infused Products:** Creating a new wave of products that incorporate the benefits of hemp, without the psychoactive properties. - **Inspired by History:** Drawing inspiration from historical figures or events to create unique and meaningful product concepts. - **The Return of the Outlaw:** Taking advantage of changes in legislation to reintroduce banned or restricted products. ### Who This Affects Most - **Alcoholic Beverages:** Exploring new ingredients, flavors, and infusions in the beverage industry, creating unique and innovative spirits. - **Fashion and Textiles:** Integrating hemp fibers into clothing and textile manufacturing, creating sustainable and eco-friendly apparel. - **Cannabis and CBD:** Utilizing the growing acceptance and legalization of cannabis to develop new products and enter new markets. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cocktail-Ready Hemp Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cantrip-elixir.md) - [Bold Hemp-Derived Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brez-spirit.md) - [THC-Infused Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbados-blanco.md) - [Cocktail-Inspired Hemp-Derived Beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/premixed-cocktails1.md) - [Cannabis-Infused Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nowadays.md) - [Hemp-Infused Hydrating Beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cannade.md) - [Cinnamon-Flavored Spirit Alternatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/howdy-thc.md) - [Rum-Inspired Hemp Beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mxxn-barbados-blanco.md) - [Health-Focused Hemp Beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pink-cloud.md)
