Tequila loaded jet flies to Jeff Bezos’ wedding

Venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya added star power to Jeff Bezos’ lavish Venice wedding by sending a private jet loaded with his ultra-premium tequila as a last-minute gift. Chamath revealed on X (formerly Twitter) that Bezos had texted him requesting the spirit, prompting him to dispatch “my plane with a case of our tequila to Venice as a wedding present.”

The tequila, co-created by Chamath and his "All-In" podcast co-hosts, launched in Los Angeles on June 21 under the brand “The Besties All-In Tequila.” Priced at $1,200, the poker-chip-shaped 750 ml release sold out within hours, with only 750 bottles made. The launch quickly gained traction on social media, fuelled by celebrity endorsements and limited availability.
