Overview

Ohza is a Cambridge, Mass.-based "champagne cocktail" company founded in June 2019 by Ryan Ayotte. The company makes premade mimosas using sparkling wine and real juice, with products that contain 130–140 calories per 12-ounce serving. Its portfolio is available in four flavors and sold in both can and keg formats. Ohza is distributed online in 42 states via ohzamimosas.com and stocked at more than 2,500 retailers including Whole Foods, Wegmans, Total Wine & More, Hannaford, Market Basket and many independent stores. The company intends to use recently raised funds to expand operations and broaden its business reach. Ohza makes ready-to-drink mimosas crafted from premium sparkling wine and real juice, positioned as clean-label alcoholic beverages with no added sugar, preservatives, or artificial flavors. The products deliver the flavor of an authentic champagne cocktail while claiming up to 80% less sugar and nearly 60% fewer calories than a traditional mimosa; they are also gluten free. Ohza recently debuted Classic Bellini and Mango Mimosa, available online and within its existing distribution footprint. The company emphasizes quality ingredients, sustainable packaging, and a lifestyle-oriented brand built around brunch culture. Ohza plans to use the new capital to fuel continued distribution expansion, product innovation, and awareness. The brand is based in Cambridge, MA and was founded by 26-year-old Ryan Ayotte.
