Mark Wahlberg Celebrated The Success Of Flecha Azul
In early 2022, Mark Wahlberg officially entered the adult beverage business by announcing an ownership stake in the tequila brand, Flecha Azul. Being a famous face associated with the beverage brand, Wahlberg’s liquor landscape gravitated towards its steady success.
Thus, on a recent note, after a year of investment and brand promotion, Mark Wahlberg‘s Flecha Azul tequila reached its summit, and the actor was seen celebrating the success. Sharing a video via Instagram, the Transformers actor was heard speaking about his liquor brand while holding a bottle of Flecha Azul.
In the video, Mark Wahlberg appeared topless with a pair of multicolored and striped trunks, while spending his time on a boating trip. Accessorizing with a pair of sunglasses, the 52-year-old made a celebratory video on Wednesday, where he stated that his brand has been voted the best-sipping tequila for 2023.
Why Mark Wahlberg Switched To Tequila Business?
Previously after Flecha Azul was listed as the best sipping tequila in 2021, Mark Wahlberg obtained an ownership stake in the brand in 2022. Meeting the founders, Aron Marquez and Abraham Ancer, of the company, Wahlberg discussed why he invested in Flecha Azul, during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
“I met [Marquez and Ancer] and realized we had so many things in common. We’re all family-oriented, self-made guys and I was just really loving what they were doing [with Flecha Azul].” Wahlberg stated.
Stating what got him into the tequila business, the actor mentioned helping the founders of Flecha Azul with brand promotion and marketing. Further, the 52-year-old reflected upon his initial love for wine, which was later replaced with tequila as he got into fitness.
“Somebody said, ‘If you drink tequila instead of wine, you don’t have to work out as hard.’ It’s not as many calories and it’s not as much fluid intake. That’s when I started drinking tequila.” Wahlberg recalled.
Therefore, having way too many personal reasons to venture into the liquor business, Mark Wahlberg eventually became a co-owner of Flecha Azul and recently celebrated its success.
