Ordered one just in time yesterday. I don't drink, but it (might) be an interesting conversation piece.

I seem to remember the lightning bolt on Tesla products...

Lordstown has a lightning bolt? Never registered.

I haven't seen the Tesla lightning bolt, but if they have used it before, maybe Lordstown was trolling Elon....

Tesla launches own tequila with crazy-looking bottle and high price tag

https://electrek.co/2020/11/05/tesla-launches-tequila-price/

Tesla has finally launched its tequila with a crazy-looking bottle and a very high price tag.

Yet another Elon Musk joke that becomes reallity.

From a fart machine inside Tesla vehicles to flamethrowers, Elon Musk had plenty of strange ideas that sounded like jokes but became reality.

Now add Teslaquila to that list.

Back in 2018, Musk poked fun at Tesla haters with an April Fool’s joke about the company going bankrupt.

As part of the joke, Musk wrote that he was found “passed out against a Tesla Model 3, surrounded by “Teslaquila” bottles, the tracks of dried tears still visible on his cheeks.

Later, the company actually filed a trademark for ‘Teslaquila’ (though it has been contested), but nothing happened with it until now.

Today, Tesla went ahead and launched its own tequila, now just called Tesla Tequila, and started taking orders for $250 on its website:

It is only available in the US and can only delivered to states that all delivery of alcohol.

The tequila has been packaged in a crazy-looking lightning strike-shape bottle.

Tesla writes in the description of the product:


The fact that it aged for more than year might explain why it took so long between announcing the product and actually bringing it to market.

Tesla appears to have partnered with Nosotros to produce the tequilla and Speakeasy Co, an alcohol branding and distributing company, to distribute the product.

Electrek’s Take
I am not that surprised that Elon took the job all the way to making the product, but I can’t believe that they actually got me.

I am a whiskey guy. Never really developed a taste for tequila, but they got me with that bottle. It looks so cool, I had to order one or two. Alright, two.

Now I am $500 poorer. Thanks Elon.
I tried to get it and I was too late sold out after few days...Lucky you...Poor me!

I bought 2 and I don't even drink. I will keep it unopen as long as I live. More like for collecting. I missed out on Tesla previously offered like the flame thrower and the CT remote control CT.

Hey.. if you weren't able to buy the Tequila, you can still get a look alike bottle of cologne.

Did everyone get their Tesla Tequila?

I'm still bummed that I could not get my order to complete.

Did anyone in Connecticut or Mass get an order placed?

There was no toilet paper on the shelves at Safeway last week, and signs saying 1 per customer - just like last spring. Hoarding is DEFINITELY happening again. Maybe things are different in Illinois or just haven’t caught up yet.

Starting up again here in Texas as well.. we had been very well stocked in all stores until recently. Its either because of all the BS leading up to Jan. 6th.. or because of the new virus strain.


I bought 700 rolls just to be sure..

..JK ?
