Kendall Jenner Visits Leukens Liquor In Tampa
Kendall Jenner made an appearance at Luekens Wine & Spririts during her visit to Tampa, Florida to promote her new tequila brand. I’d previously been to an event at Luekens that Mark Wahlberg was part of. Luekens does an amazing job with these meet-and-greet events.
Kendall came into the reception area wearing casual pants and a loose top you might work out in. She looked gorgeous and very natural. She’s very tall and thin. We had a couple of minutes to chat with her, and she was lovely. For being a big-time celebrity, she came across as very down-to-earth. Kendall is touring the country to promote her tequila brand, 818.
It was a private event and what I really enjoyed about it was the tequila tasting. Never experienced one!
Kendall Jenner Tequila Tasting in Tampa
We got to try each different blend of Kendall’s 818 Tequila. My favorite was the Repasado. I could really taste the Carmel notes. And a Doug loved the Anejeno. Her partner in the business, David, led the tasting. I loved how he explained how to sip properly and how to breathe in the taste and aroma.
It’s no wonder Kendall is making a big play with a Tequila company. Look at the monstrous financial success George Clooney had with Casa Migos. These celebrities partner with a liquor brand, help spread the word and build the brand on their own endorsement and platforms, and then hope to sell it to a larger company for a huge profit. The formula worked for Clooney. Now other celebs are following suit. If 818 blows up, could
Kendall’s net worth surpass her sister’s? Kylie has climbed the Fortune 500 list thanks to her successful beauty company.
I can highly recommend the new 818 Tequila being promoted by Kendall Jenner in Tampa. Speaking of tequila…Are you a big fan of drinking tequila? Why not check out some hot spots to enjoy it around Tampa.
Four Hot Spots For Tequila Drinks In South Tampa
If you want an exciting night out in South Tampa, add some Tequila to the mix. That should do it for you.
But of course, make sure you’re not the one driving. My two favorite adult beverages are a glass of red wine or a tequila drink. I’ll drink tequila on the rocks, but I love a good mixed tequila drink. I don’t like the traditional types of mixed tequila drinks. I prefer when they use creative ingredients and make them a little spicy.
I have four places that I go to for creative tequila drinks to spice up the night. The Rooftop bar at the new Tampa Edition Hotel is my favorite. You can enjoy a beautiful sunset, too.
Counter Culture has to-die-for brunches and you must have one of their yummy tequila drinks to accompany it. Try a Garden Party, which is made with espolòn reposado tequila, ancho reyes verde poblano liqueur, lime, agave, house three pepper tincture. Of course, I’m partial to Meat Market, but they do have one of my favorite mixed tequila drinks. It’s a mixture of tequila, orange, cinnamon, and honey. That sounds like it must be good for you! Haha!
And I love Olivia Italian Restaurant for a shot of tequila or one of their signature Apulia cocktails, which is a mixture of Corazon Reposado, Orange Shrub, Aperol, and Agave.

I usually only like to have one tequila drink, because if I have more than that, I may pay for it the next day, and of course, I might not be able to remember what a good time I had.
Check out this list of the hotspots I just mentioned around South Tampa, and pick a spot that you might think would be great for a fun night out. Have fun and be safe!
