Elon Musk loves to come up with unique business ideas. Sometimes, he comes up with new inventions such as the Tesla Cybertruck or the Tesla Model S. And sometimes, he comes up with a Tesla Tequila.

 

No, Tesla Tequila is not the name of a new electric vehicle. Rather, it is a liquor product that Tesla will now be manufacturing. So, Elon Musk is also trying to rise in the world of spirits now.

 

Now, you will be able to buy a bolt-shaped Tesla Tequila bottle measuring 750 ml for $250 (approximately A$340). This will be the first branded liquid by Tesla. According to Tesla, this 750 ml bottle will contain some “small-batch premium 100% de agave tequila añejo made from sustainably sourced highland and lowland agaves”.

That is exactly how the automotive giant describes this product. The Tesla Tequila is aged 15 months and it carries a sharp finish like cinnamon with a tinge of fruit. Furthermore, this Tequila is more suitable for sipping.

 

If you are thinking about why would a car company even want to sell Tequila, you are not the only one. In 2018, an April Fool joke came to the surface. Elon Musk tweeted a picture in which he was passed out along with a Tesla Model 3. He had a sign in his hand that said, “Bankwupt!”

The caption further implied that the CEO of Tesla is found unconscious amidst ‘Teslaquila’ bottles. Well, the humor here was questionable. Yet a big number of people seemed to like the tweet.

And just after a few months, the ‘Teslaquila’ name got trademarked. So, the plans to sell a Tesla Tequila probably date back to a year or two.

 

Do you think that it is unusual for a car manufacturing company to sell liquor? Especially due to the dangers of drunk driving? According to the brand’s website, the very first Tesla Tequila run has sold out already.

While Tesla is busy marketing its new Tesla Tequila, other car companies seem to be forming incredible partnerships such as the latest Aston Martin X Bowmore collaboration that came to the surface.
