Contigo Tequila

Mexico & India

Bridging Mexico and India.

Contigo is a premium tequila that celebrates the connection between two vibrant cultures. The name means "with you" in Spanish—a promise of togetherness that resonates across borders. We created a brand that honors Mexican tequila-making traditions while embracing India's colorful celebration culture, resulting in a spirit that brings people together through shared moments of joy.

CHALLENGE

An authentic tequila brand that
speaks to Indian consumers

How do you create an authentic tequila brand that speaks to Indian consumers without losing its Mexican soul? The challenge was to develop a premium spirit that could compete with established global brands while telling a unique cross-cultural story. We needed to navigate complex regulations in both countries, appeal to Indian tastes and celebration traditions, and create packaging that felt genuine to both cultures—all while maintaining the craftsmanship and quality expected from premium tequila. The brand had to educate a new market about tequila culture while feeling immediately familiar and welcoming.

APPROACH

The spirit of shared celebration

We positioned Contigo as the spirit of shared celebration, drawing parallels between Mexican fiestas and Indian festivals. The visual identity merges warm agave field tones with the vibrant colors of Indian celebrations. Traditional Mexican craft techniques meet Indian artistic patterns on every bottle. The packaging tells a story of two cultures that share more than they might realize—a love for family, bold flavors, and coming together in celebration. Small-batch production using highland Jalisco agave ensures authenticity, while the brand voice speaks both languages of celebration. The result is a tequila that doesn't choose between cultures but brings them together, creating something entirely new while respecting what makes each special.
