The rarest kind of collaboration — one that isn't forced. Cincoro Tequila was co-founded by five NBA team owners, and Jeanie Buss, Governor of the Los Angeles Lakers, is one of them. So when Cincoro created this Lakers Special Edition Añejo, it wasn't a licensing deal — it was a founding partner honoring her own team. Jeanie Buss personally selected the liquid inside this bottle, connecting the championship legacy of the Lakers directly to what's inside the glass. Cincoro is the Official Spirit of the Los Angeles Lakers.
The tequila itself is Cincoro's award-winning Añejo at its finest: 100% Blue Weber Agave from private farms in both the Highland and Lowland regions of Jalisco, Mexico — a dual-terroir approach that gives Cincoro its uniquely complex signature profile. Aged over 20 months in Tennessee whiskey barrels, this Añejo develops a deep, layered character with maple-like sweetness, butterscotch, dark chocolate, and a long oak finish. The bottle — a striking purple-to-gold gradient with the official Lakers logo and embossed Cincoro crest — is as much a display piece as a premium spirit. Southern California exclusive. Limited quantities. The Official Spirit of champions.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Cooked agave, toasted oak, warm caramel, vanilla bean, maple, hints of orange rind, and subtle baking spice — complex and inviting
Palate: Butterscotch, dark chocolate, honeyed agave, sweet roasted agave, layered oak from the Tennessee whiskey barrels — rich, smooth, and dessert-forward
Finish: Long and warm — spice, dried fruit, and caramel linger in a championship-worthy finish
FAQ
What is Cincoro and who founded it?
Cincoro Tequila was founded in 2016 by five NBA team owners who bonded over a shared passion for tequila. Jeanie Buss (Los Angeles Lakers), Michael Jordan (Charlotte Hornets), Wyc Grousbeck (Boston Celtics), Emilia Fazzalari, and Bob Paterno. Its name comes from "cinco" (five) and "oro" (gold). Cincoro is made from 100% Blue Weber Agave from private farms in both the Highland and Lowland regions of Jalisco — a dual-terroir approach unique to the brand.
What makes this different from standard Cincoro Añejo?
The liquid is the same award-winning Cincoro Añejo, aged over 20 months in Tennessee whiskey barrels — but this version was personally selected by Jeanie Buss and is presented in an exclusive Lakers Special Edition collector's bottle with the official Lakers logo, purple-to-gold gradient, and embossed dual-brand design. It's the official Lakers collaboration, not just a label swap.
Is this a good Lakers fan gift?
It's arguably the best Lakers fan gift available — an officially licensed, limited edition bottle from the team's own co-founder, combining championship-level tequila with the iconic purple and gold. Equally impressive as a bar display piece, a collector's item, or a premium gift.
