WHAT'S HOT

Break out the shot glasses, it’s National Tequila Day! The Mexican spirit, made from agave plants, netted a record-breaking 2022, and according to Forbes, tequila is on track to beat out vodka and whiskey to become the top liquor in America. From a sales perspective, the tequila market is expected to expand to $15.7 billion by 2029.
With that said, it makes sense that celebs like Nick Jonas, Justin Timberlake, George Strait (shop the country legend’s Código 1530 here), Carlos Santana and Adam Levine have gotten into the tequila business.
In celebration of National Margarita Day, we’ve compiled seven musician-backed tequila brands for you to enjoy along with a few other honorable mentions: Heradura Legend, Casa Azul Reposado, Espolon Reposado, Tequila Avion Reserva Cristalino, Casamigos and Don Julio 1942.
See the lineup below for a roundup of musician-backed tequilas.
Nick Jonas, Villa One Tequila

Nick Jonas, John Varvatos and Stoli teamed up to create Villa One in 2019. The website boasts tequila with a “unique combination of agave flavors that combines herbaceous, earthy Lowland notes with the sweeter, fruity notes of Highland agave, resulting in a distinct, rounded profile.”
Carlos Santana, Casa Noble Tequila

Carlos Santana joined Casa Noble Tequila as a part owner in the brand and a member of its board of directors in 2011. Santana was born in Jalisco, so it was a perfect fit for the guitar legend. The company handcrafts organic tequilas in crystal, reposado and añejo styles.
Adam Levine, Calirosa Tequila

“A fusion of Mexican spirit and California style.” Adam Levine and his wife Behati Prinsloo’s Calirosa tequila is aged in red wine barrels from one month up to five years depending on the type of tequila.
To produce the tequila, Levine and Prinsloo partnered with the Real family of Tequila Selecto de Amatitán located in Jalisco, Mexico. Shop Calirosa’s rosa blanco, añejo, extra añejo and cinco años tequila here.
Thomas Rhett, Dos Primos Tequila

Dos Primos, which means “Two Cousins,” was fittingly launched by the country superstar and his cousin Jeff Worn to “create a tequila that blended Mexican tradition with southern sensibility.”
“My wife and I love to enjoy tequila together, and I’m excited for people to share a bottle with friends, sip it around a bonfire or enjoy it on a fishing trip or at tailgate or concert,” Rhett said in a press statement. “Dos Primos is about unwinding and enjoying the people and things that really matter in life.”
The award-wining tequila lineup includes reposado, añejo and tequila blanco.
Sammy Hagar & Guy Fieri, Santo Tequila

Sammy Hagar and celebrity chef Fieri teamed up with Juan Eduardo Nuñez, a third-generation distiller from distillery El Viejito in Jalisco for Santo, which offers “a sinfully smooth old world style tequila blanco, an oak-aged reposado, and the world’s first mezquila.”
Rita Ora, Prospero Tequila

Rita Ora and Conecuh Brands teamed with female distiller, Stella Anguiano, to launch Próspero tequila in 2020.
Available in blanco, añejo and reposado, the tequila serves up an “unparalleled flavor with a smooth, elegant, and perfectly balanced finish.”
