Celebrated fine-art photographer and New York Times bestselling author and CEO of his eponymous lifestyle brand Gray Malin and ultra-premium tequila brand Tequila Don Julio have teamed up and introduced the “Agave Series,” aerial photography of agave fields in Jalisco, México.
Merging Gray’s love of aerial photography with brand founder Don Julio González’s love of his land, Gray designed custom umbrellas and placed them amongst traditionally dressed jimadors representative of the legacy of one of Mexico’s most beloved tequila brands. The aerial photos are available now to bring the world of Tequila Don Julio into your home by Gray Malin, this is what Malin said:
I’ve loved Tequila Don Julio for a long time so it was an honor to capture their stunning agave fields where the tequila-making process all begins.
This was my first time shooting work above this type of landscape and I was mesmerized by the geometric rows of the teal agave contrasted against the red soil. Experiencing the fields from this perspective, and the care that goes into each plant to produce every bottle, is immensely impressive, it’s an art in itself.
