Playa Dia Debuts With Sculptural Bottle and Zero Burn Tequila

When founders Rachel Forbes and Dennis Cisterna traveled the globe, they noticed a recurring gap in luxury hospitality: the tequila served in high-end destinations rarely matched the quality of the surroundings. Their solution, Newport Beach-based Playa Dia, launches this month with a mission to redefine the spirit through aesthetic and flavor.

The brand debuts with a Blanco expression crafted from 100% Blue Weber Agave in Jalisco, Mexico. Distilled at 40% ABV, the spirit is marketed under a 'Zero Burn' philosophy, aiming to bridge the gap between seasoned tequila enthusiasts and those who typically avoid the spirit due to its harsh finish. Forbes emphasizes that the goal is to evoke the feeling of a vacation, treating the product as a lifestyle brand rather than a standard beverage.

Central to the brand’s identity is its striking all-glass seashell bottle, accented with turquoise rope. Designed to stand out on retail shelves, the sculptural vessel is intended to function as a piece of decor. Beyond the liquid, the company is rolling out a collection of resort-inspired apparel and accessories. Currently, the tequila is available for delivery to 45 states via their website, with a physical rollout beginning in Orange County, California, where Forbes is personally managing placements in local hotels and restaurants.
