To celebrate the month of November, el Jimador tequila is returning to their roots, by encouraging South African men to cultivate a little facial hair on their upper lip and Flash their Tash. Through a series of activations in trendy bars and clubs across Cape Town and Joburg, el Jimador will be embracing the recognisable national symbol – an indispensable part of the Mexican macho man.

As Mexico’s no.1 selling tequila, el Jimador launched in South Africa two years ago and has quickly become a popular choice not only because the essence of the premium tequila sits deep within the heart of the blue agave, but because the premium 100% agave tequila is best savoured alone – no salt or lemon required.

Visit the We-are-Awesome website (http://we-are-awesome.com/) to view your party pics from the Flash your Tash parties and remember to upload photos of your tash on Twitter, using the hashtag #eljimador, to stand a chance of winning an el Jimador prize. Competition ends on Monday 5 December 2011. For those looking to host their own fiesta at home, el Jimador is available from R149 at selected liquor outlets countrywide.
