818 Tequila
Sustainable Spirits
The only number you need to be calling this summer is 818. Creatively devised by Kendall Jenner, 818 Tequila is an award-winning tequila brand produced at a family-owned and operated distillery in Jalisco, Mexico. Each bottle is sustainably sourced from Weber blue agaves, sold in four variations–a Blanco, Reposado, Añejo and Eight Reserve by 818, an exclusive Añejo Reserve that officially marks 818’s entrance in the ultra premium tequila category.
“The area code 818 is home to me, but the Earth is home to all of us. So, from the agaves we grow, to the production of the bottle, sustainability and transparency of our supply chain was our core focus.” – Kendall Jenner
Most recently, the brand has won 43 blind tasting awards spanning 13 international competitions, such as the Best Reposado Tequila from the World Tequila Awards, Platinum Award from the SIP Awards, Chairman’s Trophy from the Ultimate Spirits Challenge, Triple Gold from the MicroLiquor Spirit Awards, and the Innovation Award from the SIP Awards.
818 also is partnered with S.A.C.R.E.D. (Saving Agave for Culture, Recreation, Education, and Development), a non-profit that benefits local Mexican communities where heritage agave spirits are produced, to give back to the community. The brand is proud to support the next generation of leaders in Mexico through its Bricks program, which uses agave waste and production byproducts to create building materials for select community initiatives across Mexico. 818 is currently donating bricks and funding to projects like constructing and stocking a public library and middle school in Zapotitlán de Vadillo and rebuilding a classic, locally-owned mezcal distillery in Tuxpan.
818-TEQ-UILA” is the only number we’ll be calling this summer
Promising magical summer evenings and moments made with the people you love most, 818 is elevating the humble agave to create a brand centric on sustainability and ethics, while leaving plenty of space for dancing, laughter, and memorable sipping.
