TRES GENERACIONES® CELEBRATES 50TH ANNIVERSARY WITH LAUNCH OF 'FAMILIA TRES' TALENT COLLECTIVE

'Familia Tres' Brings Together World-Renowned Creatives with VIP Experiences, Exclusive Content, and Curated 'GENERACIONES' Content Hub

NEW YORK, July 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Tres Generaciones®, a premium tequila rooted in the spirit of perseverance, celebrates the brand's 50^th anniversary with the launch of Familia Tres, a one-of-a-kind talent collective of world-renowned musicians, artists and tastemakers who embody the brand's 'Fail Twice, Get Up Tres' mantra, an unrelenting pursuit of what gives us meaning.

The Familia Tres talent collective and anniversary campaign will come to life through a series of VIP experiences that place the Familia Tres stories on full display within the brand's new online content hub  –  'GENERACIONES'   – which will feature exclusive interviews, profiles, cocktail recipes and more. With the launch of Familia Tres and release of 'GENERACIONES', Tres Generaciones® will be championing those who share the persevering spirit of the brand, as told through their personal journeys throughout their careers. Profiles on 'GENERACIONES' will include Victoria Monét, a Grammy Award-nominated singer/songwriter who is preparing for the release of her highly anticipated new album and Terrell Jones who recently made his foray into the luxury brand world after more than a decade of styling hip-hop's biggest acts.

"We are bringing Tres Generaciones'® storied heritage to the forefront through the launch of Familia Tres, which celebrates the next generation of influential creatives," said Andrew Eis, senior marketing director, global tequila at Beam Suntory. "Through this program, we are spotlighting the journeys behind these creative powerhouses and showcasing how they truly embody the 'Fail Twice, Get Up Tres' spirit of our brand."

Tres Generaciones'® storied history is shaped by three generations of Dons who together were responsible for establishing the spirit as native to the region of Tequila, Mexico, creating one of the first Añejo Tequilas, and becoming one of the first families to export to North America. Each of the three Dons' contributions is visualized by a stripe on the bottle, marking their decades-long journey to perfect an incredibly smooth triple distilled tequila and a legacy worth toasting to. Now, as the brand marks its 50^th anniversary, Famillia Tres honors the Dons' legacy of persistence and hard work through cultural figures that demonstrate the same determined ethos. 

"The story of Tres Generaciones® and the three Dons reminds me of my own family heritage – myself, and the two strongest women I know - my mother, and my grandmother. Like the Sauza family, our previous generations help shape us and better our futures," said Victoria Monét. "I'm excited to continue the tradition of blazing trails through my work, from my upcoming new album 'Jaguar II,' and toasting to hard work and dedication with my Tres Generaciones® Familia Tres collective."

Familia Tres proudly showcases notable go-getters and tastemakers who touch different facets of the creative industry and exemplify the mantra of 'Fail Twice, Get Up Tres' including:
