LeBron James is a natural wine guy who loves to drink red wine during his time with the family.
After his love for wine, the four-time NBA champion announced he’ll invest in the Tequila business per WSJ Magazine.
“I knew the first time I tasted Lobos 1707 Tequila that it was special. When I learned more about the brand story and leadership team, I just wanted to be a part of it.”
James mentioned in the interview how he’s sampled the best of Tequilas and why he got involved.
“If it’s organic to who I am or what I’m doing, then it’s a lot easier for me to be a part of something. I was in a perfect place in my life. Me and my friends were trying different tequilas. I actually bought a place with Maverick Carter in Cabo a few years ago. There’s obviously a big tequila heritage there,” James said, per WSJ Magazine.
Just like the city of Akron, the wine will always have a special place in James’ heart. It doesn’t mean he’s done away with a good glass of Vino.
