The Tubi 60 Story

Tubi 60, the national spirit of Israel, is the most popular liquor on the market in it's home country but just a few years ago Tubi 60 was just an idea in the minds of brothers Hilal and Yanai Tubi. In 2011 they set out to create a revolutionary new spirit that would be superior in taste, quality, and effect. They spent a year researching and testing different configurations of their unfiltered, herbal citrus spirit, collaborating with botanists and food scientists from Tel Aviv University until they came to their perfect formula. First introduced in the trendy market district of the Jerusalem, Tubi 60 gained favor among local bartenders and patrons and by 2013 Tubi 60's popularity had carried it to every corner of Israel.

A cult fan favorite from inception, Tubi's reputation as a category creator and ultra unique spirit garnered international attention as visitors to Israel began carrying bottles home with them in their suitcases to all corners of the world. Fans organically started a trend of sharing photos of their Tubi bottles from all corners of the world with the hashtag #tubi60. 

Tubi's international fanbase also the spearheaded the brand's international expansion with fans in the United States, Hungary, Norway, and Germany starting companies to import it to their home countries.
