Jose Cuervo, the world's best-selling brand of tequila, plans to further explore the Metaverse.
According to a tweet posted by trademark attorney Mike Kondoudis, the company has filed several trademark applications with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for multimedia based on non-fungible tokens (NFTs), digital asset marketplaces, virtual restaurants and bars, virtual food, drinks and apparel, as well as virtual distilleries.
In late March, Jose Cuervo announced that it would open the very first-of-its-kind distillery in Decentraland, a 3D virtual world powered by the Ethereum blockchain.
The project eventually went live last week with Jose Cuervo merch and Decentraland wearables. The "metadistillery" also has drink mixing challenges and other interactive games for users who are of legal drinking age.

As reported by U.Today, legendary brewing company Anheuser-Busch also filed several Metaverse-related trademark applications back in April. This came after the company launched the first collection of virtual beer cans under the Bud Light brand in late 2021. In March, Dutch brewing behemoth Heineken also introduced alcohol-free beer with purified pixels.
