Producer Information: 818 Spirits
818 Spirits, founded by Kendall Jenner in 2021, is based in Jalisco, Mexico, a region celebrated for its rich tequila-making heritage and volcanic soil that nurtures blue Weber agave. The brand’s philosophy centers on sustainable production and community partnership, working closely with local family-owned farms and employing traditional brick ovens for slow roasting the agave. 818 Spirits has quickly established itself within the premium tequila category through its commitment to transparency and environmental responsibility. While their primary focus remains on tequila—offering Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo expressions—they have not expanded into other wines or spirits as of yet, maintaining a clear dedication to authentic Mexican tequila rooted in Jalisco’s terroir.

Tequila is a distilled spirit made primarily from the blue agave plant (Agave tequilana), predominantly produced in the Jalisco region of Mexico, along with some areas in Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit, and Tamaulipas. This unique spirit undergoes a meticulous distillation process, typically involving double distillation in pot stills or column stills. Tequila is categorized into several types based on its aging process: Blanco (unaged or aged less than 2 months), Reposado (aged between 2 months and 1 year), Añejo (aged between 1 and 3 years), and Extra Añejo (aged over 3 years). Each type offers distinct flavor profiles ranging from fresh and herbal to rich and complex.
The flavor and aroma of tequila vary significantly across its categories. Blanco tequilas are known for their crisp texture with fresh citrus notes, peppery hints, and agave sweetness. Reposado tequilas present a softer profile with vanilla and caramel undertones derived from oak aging. Añejo varieties boast richer flavors such as chocolate, coffee, and dried fruit alongside pronounced oak influence. Extra Añejo tequilas deliver complex layers of deep wood characteristics combined with smoothness. Tequila is versatile in cocktails; it serves as the base for popular drinks like Margaritas, Tequila Sunrises, Palomas, and various craft cocktails that highlight agave spirits.
