Timberlake's tequila hits his home state

Entertainer Justin Timberlake's much-hyped 901 Silver Tequila is continuing its nationwide rollout by hitting store shelves this week in his native Tennessee.

The tequila, named for the Memphis telephone area code, already is available in New York, California, Nevada and Missouri.

Kevin Ruder, president of 901 Silver, said, "As we all know, the brand's namesake was conceived here and we look forward to introducing 901 to the state that inspired it."

901 Silver is produced using 100% Weber blue agave. It is produced at the Tequilera Newton e Hijos, S.A. de C.V. Distillery in Tesistan, Jalisco, Mexico. The spirit is triple distilled in small batches at 40% alcohol by volume (80 proof).
