Cars, solar panels, tunnel boring, clothing and, of course,
rockets. Is there nothing that Elon Musk cannot make?
Actually yes, Tequila. The Tequila in the bottle is made by
Nosotros and usually costs US$40/45 per bottle, although
to be fair, this Tequila has been aged for 15 months in
French Oak casks and the bottle is hand blown in the
shape of a lightning bolt. Don’t lose the stand or you will
have to drink the whole bottle!
This bottle is selling, in a few US states, for US$250, limit
two per person. I have no doubt they will sell out fast.
This project started out as an April Fool joke in 2018 that
said Tesla was going bankrupt. Elon posted a pic of
himself passed out by the side of one of his Tesla Model
3’s, surrounded by Teslaquila bottles. He had already
patented the name.
And no, this is not a miniature, which is a pity as it would
be a great seller – don’t hold your breath though.
