The latest edition of Food & Beverage magazine (www.fbmagazine.com) showcases the multi-talented actor and comedian, Kevin Hart, as he graces the cover and shares his journey into the world of tequila. Known for his success in film and television, Hart has recently expanded his ventures into the food and beverage industry, and his latest endeavor brings him into the tequila realm. Celebrating the release of the magazine, Hart hosted a lively event at his Hartbeat headquarters in Los Angeles, featuring an activation for his tequila brand, Gran Coramino.
“I knew exactly what I wanted Gran Coramino to taste like. I just needed someone who could bring that authenticity and high-quality product to fruition,” said Hart, Founder of Gran Coramino Tequila. “Juan, my partner James Morrissey from Global Brand Equities, and myself decided on every aspect of this product. We worked tirelessly to create the perfect Reposado Cristalino and Anejo and I couldn’t be happier with the result.”

As entrepreneurs, long-time philanthropists, and tequila lovers from diverse backgrounds, Beckmann and Hart first bonded over their passion for tequila. However, they quickly realized they shared a commitment to giving back to their respective communities in a meaningful way. Recognizing the importance of bringing financial resources and learning opportunities to deserving small businesses, Gran Coramino is proud to donate $1 from every bottle sold to support diverse entrepreneurs and their endeavors. Working with trusted partners in Mexico and the United States, Gran Coramino is helping close wealth and opportunity gaps through cash grants and programs.
“We’ve been working with Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) to create the Coramino Fund — a give-back program providing $10,000 grants to Black and Latinx-owned small businesses all over the country,” stated Hart. “I know that pursuing the path of entrepreneurship is hard work. I also know that some of our best and brightest have historically been excluded from opportunities or lacked the resources to pursue their entrepreneurial dreams and we want to do our part to break down those barriers.
