Today, It seems like every single celebrity owns a tequila brand. You cant go anywhere without seeing these celebrity tequilas. Clubs, bars, restaurants, Instagram, TikTok and KZfaq. Its everywhere. Celebrities like Lebron James, Kendall Jenner, Nick Jonas, Michael Jordan, and even Guy Fieri all have their own tequila brands now.
But why are all these Celebrities getting into the tequila game?
Could it be for their love of the heritage and craftsmanship of making tequila? Maybe its because tequila has always been their passion? Hell no! And that's only the beginning of the Problems with Celebrity Tequila.

I can attest that these Celebrity Tequilas are actually making getting into tequila really hard. I'm extremely new to tequila, and alcohol in general, and just finding a bottle at the liquor store is a nightmare. 75% of the stuff that isn't top shelf is either a gimmick bottle, a horrible brand, or a celebrity tequila. So I either have to spend my entire alcohol budget on a great bottle of tequila (something I want to do after I have more experience with the liquor) or I can spend 20-30 minutes reading through every lable in the store to find a decent $30 bottle that wasn't made by horrible people. I'm glad people are shedding light on these people's awful practices. Good work

I really appreciate this video. In the not too distant past, I have purchased and enjoyed a couple of the brands shown here. But since then, I have been focused on buying and drinking "pure" spirits. Being of Mexican heritage, the message of truly supporting Mexican companies (and families) that take the time to produce the genuine product resonated with me. I currently have a couple bottles of Tres Agaves. Will definitely be looking for the brands you mentioned here and in other videos. I am grateful for your content, the effort you put into these videos and for the education I have received as a result. Gracias. 🙏

Hi Lui, great to see a rant from you longer than your beloathed Tik Tok shorts. The celeb promotion of their purchased barrels is a global problem across rums, whisky, whiskey, bourbon, cognac as well. But the pressure it is putting on the Mexico specific agave cultivation and cropping is having, as you have said, a devastating effect on the long term wellbeing of the agave plants and their Mexican farmers. It cannot be right! Nick from York

And it comes at a cost to Mexican heritage, culture, and environment. This should matter to everyone. This is where the product you buy and consume is made. Respecting where and how products are made and buying accordingly is a good practice for buying consciously sourced products in an ethical, sustainable and socially conscious way, which means you are buying Quality. Go for quality, the Mexican way. Thank you for sharing, Lui. 😊

This is a really informative video filled with great knowlege-except, in the Los Altos region sur (Arandas, Atotonilco el Alto, Betania, San Jose de Gracia, San Franciso de Asis, pretty much anyplace you have red clay soil), your plants, if you give then lots of fertilizer will mature in year 5. Also, I recently learned a few months back that farmers are now installing irrigation systems to water their agave plants in the dry season (2nd week of October-1st week of June, "therein: to quote Bugs Bunny) and by doing this, the piñas are growing even bigger. With the plants having pesticides, mixed with the water, seeping into the soil and subsequently landing in basins that humans use, that could be a big problem down the line. too much corruption down yonder so a blind eye is turned. As long as la lana keeps landing.

Cool. 2-3 years later, Diddy enters into a partnership with Circo, now its on tv, in GQ magazine and in videos. Now people are coming to me like "Yo, you gotta drink Ciroc! its triple distilled!"

Man, they came to our lands close to Jalisco wanting to buy them so they could plant Agave. The demand of more land for agave is leading to reduced production of our corn, wheat and other crops plus when you sell to big distiliries, they don't keep up with it, they leave that land for the 8 years it takes to the agave plant. This in turns makes for an eye sore of your once highly ferile lands. What you see in the commercials is not the actuality. Just feeding you more marketing. F**k those brands! Thanks for the vid.

I hope you are wrong, but reality is you are likely correct. However, I do have to say Casamigos Mezcal was my gateway into the world of Mezcal. BUT, I do now only look for those spirits that are the real deal and support Mexican businesses.

I work at a liquiot store and I recommend someone to buy Lalo (blanco) which is a tequila you mentioned here before that is additive free. The dude refused because he did not know the brand and instead went with Teramana because he trust the rock and thinks its good lol also PS I work with someone who thinks the rock is not on roids lol... seriously ppl put celebs on pedestals

I just hope they don’t go into whiskey, bourbon or rum. I don’t want to see my favorite drinks become a product to be sold by celebrity shills.

It is has anything to do with a celebrity I keep far far away from it. I tried George Clooney's brand as I was reading all the great reviews about it. I had one shot and gave the bottle away. I have three brands that I stick with, Fortaleza, El Tesoro, and Milagro. Most of the time I go with Reposado, but now and then I try Blanco and Anejo.

I just don't understand why that all picked tequila, and not whiskey, because whiskey had gotten crazy popular too. Maybe it's because whiskey people pride themselves on knowing thier sh*t, (as do tequila people, but tequila people are less common in English speaking countries) so they couldn't get away with selling overpriced trash. I'm a beautician, and I'm so tired of them selling overpriced garbage makeup and skincare too. I know how you feel.

In the end as much as politics are in involved in a lot of things , when it comes to tequila all I care about is the taste and price, it in come in a box for all I care , I'll just put the juice in a decanter .

My problem with the it’s taking away from Mexico thing is everyone does this with every spirit… champagne is from France but people make champagne everywhere bourbon is from Kentucky but there are other places that make bourbon… I don’t think the celebrity tequila is gonna take away from the Mexican industry who would even want that over the real thing I go to Mexico once a year and man I’ve had tequila there that’s so much better than anything I’ve had in the states hands down

You actually can't legally call your product Champagne if it doesn't come from the champagne region of France. Bourbon is legally only made in the U.S not just Kentucky.

I love your video and your channel. However… it shouldn’t be considered appropriation if someone who isn’t Mexican wants to make tequila somewhere else as long as it’s made correctly and tastes amazing.

Yes but it should be when that same celebrity who is slapping their name on the bottle is wearing traditional Mexican clothes to show how "Mexican" they are.
