Tesla is making a move into the world of spirits, starting with their new product, Tesla Mezcal. This comes after previous ventures into the alcohol industry with Tesla Tequila in 2020 and Tesla CyberBeer last year. Priced at $450, the limited-release Tesla Mezcal is described as having a delicate yet spicy taste, with hints of citrus, green apple, and a subtle smokiness that lingers on the tongue.
Mezcal is similar to tequila as both are made from the agave plant, but mezcal is known for its smokier flavor profile. Other celebrities have also entered the mezcal market, such as Sammy Hagar with Santo Mezquila and Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul with Dos Hombres.
For those interested in trying Tesla Mezcal, it is made by Nosotros Tequila & Mezcal and contains alcohol derived from Espadín and Bicuishe agaves. The unique flavors of Bicuishe agave include herbs, roasted vegetables, and a hint of peanut. With an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 43%, Tesla Mezcal offers a floral and spicy taste with earthy aromas and a balanced mouthfeel.
To purchase Tesla Mezcal, customers can order online with a limit of two bottles per order. The spirit is only available for delivery in select states and orders will begin shipping in three to six weeks.
Overall, Tesla’s foray into the spirits industry continues to expand with the introduction of Tesla Mezcal, offering fans and collectors a new and unique product to enjoy.
