Earlier this year, we were honored to participate in the University of Georgia’s Flavor of Georgia Tasting Experience. Hosted annually, the event celebrates Georgia-made food and beverages that showcase quality and innovation from businesses across the state.

Our adaptogenic energy bars were featured in this year's Snack Foods category and highlighted for their clean taste, herbalist-led formulation, and well-balanced nutrition.

For ILA, Flavor of Georgia signifies a full circle moment. The University of Georgia is where co-founders Amy Saleh and Eileen Brantley met and eventually created the business that would later become ILA.

Returning to Athens to be participants in Flavor of Georgia competition is a true testament to how far Amy, Eileen, and the bars have come.

It was a pleasure to be a contestant at this year's event. We are grateful to be part of a community that inspires the next generation of entrepreneurs.
