Later that year, the company filed an "intent to use" trademark for Teslaquila with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. As the Verge noted when Tesla filed the trademark, it's not the first time a luxury car brand has released non-auto merch. BMW sells thermoses, Porsche sells branded Huawei phones, and Ferrari sells $55 earbuds. Tesla has its own merch line, which includes toy cars, phone charging banks shaped like Tesla charging stations, and apparel.
Tequila production, ironically, is far from environmentally friendly and seems to oppose Tesla's environmentally-driven mission. Mike Morales, CEO of Tequila Aficionado Media, told the Verge that the production process produces 10 liters of wastewater for every liter of usable tequila.
