Duty free retailer Gebr. Heinemann host launch of 1800 GuachiMonton Tequila in stores in Vienna and Frankfurt airports.<\/p>\n


\nActivations highlighting 1800 GuachiMonton are live and will run until the end of July. They mark 1800 GuachiMonton\u2019s first appearance in global travel retail outside of the USA.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At Vienna Airport, 1800 GuachiMonton is featured in an eye-catching promotion in the airport\u2019s main shop while the Frankfurt activations run across three stores in three terminals, T1A, T1Z and T2S.<\/p>\n

The 1800 GuachiMonton promotions are supported by brand ambassadors with sampling available of the new expression, along with 1800 A\u00f1ejo and Silver. A gift-with-purchase offer \u2013 on purchases exceeding \u20ac49 \u2013 features a collectible boxed 1800\u00ae-branded glass from Austrian glassware specialist Riedel.<\/p>\n

Commenting on the launches, Roy Summers, Proximo Spirits Head of Global Travel Retail, said: \u201cOur outstanding 1800 Tequila brand has reached new heights of liquid luxury with 1800\u00ae GuachiMonton, its most super-premium expression yet.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIt is befitting, therefore, that these product and activation spaces, as we introduce 1800 GuachiMonton, to the European market, are truly stunning and clearly differentiated.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

1800\u00ae GuachiMonton: Celebrating Mexican tradition and culture <\/strong><\/p>\n

Inspired by the archaeological jewel of Jalisco \u2013 the pre-Columbian pyramids of Los Guachimontones in Western Mexico \u2013 1800\u00ae GuachiMonton celebrates Mexican tradition and culture.<\/p>\n

It honours the shared terroir of the Tequila Valley and the UNESCO World Heritage site Los Guachimontones and is the first and only luxury a\u00f1ejo tequila aged in American and French oak barrels and finished in orange tequila liqueur casks.<\/p>\n

1800 GuachiMonton is crafted with the finest 100% Blue Weber agave, grown and matured between six to eight years and sourced from a single estate in the lowlands regions of the Tequila Valley.<\/p>\n

1800 GuachiMonton is presented in a striking ceramic trapezoidal-shaped bottle with a distinctive wooden circular cap.<\/p>\n

Inspired by the jewel of Jalisco, Los Guachimontones, the red bottle and wooden cap take shape from the circular pyramids dating back to before the Hispanic era, where communities would gather for ceremonial rituals. To protect and preserve this shared heritage, 1800\u00ae Tequila will be providing long term support to conserve the UNESCO site, its museum and the cultural, art and educational initiatives tied to the area.<\/p>\n

\u201cA modern twist to an already luxurious A\u00f1ejo tasting experience\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n

Master Distiller and Head of Production, Alex Coronado, commented: \u201c1800\u00ae GuachiMonton not only represents the roots of Mexican tradition and culture but also Mexican terroir and ritual.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cA nod to the fragrant orange trees surrounding the pyramids of Los Guachimontones and our family-owned distillery, the liquid is inspired by the timeless ritual of plucking fresh oranges to garnish a glass of A\u00f1ejo. Its decadent and persistent orange citrus flavour profile provides a premium, modern twist to an already luxurious A\u00f1ejo tasting experience.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

With an ABV of 40%, its perfect serve is neat, on the rocks, in a traditional cocktail like an Old Fashioned or by exploring a new tequila tasting ritual and pairing with Mexican chocolate.<\/p>\n
