About this color

Tequila sits at 31° on the color wheel with 100% saturation and 90% lightness, placing it in the orange-red segment of the spectrum. With saturation at 100%, this is a high-chroma color: the kind that anchors palettes and demands considered placement. The elevated lightness keeps it airy and open, well-suited to large surface areas without visual weight.

In digital environments, Tequila is rendered as rgb(255, 230, 204), where the red channel dominates at 255, though the other channels keep the hue balanced. High saturation at this lightness produces strong contrast against white — effective for CTAs, badges, and elements that need to stop the eye.

For print, Tequila translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 10M 20Y 0K. With almost no black ink (0%), this color is built almost entirely from process inks: 10% magenta, 20% yellow. This profile tends toward vibrancy in print, though ink density limits on press may affect saturation on coated versus uncoated stock. No brands in the brandkit.pro library currently specify this exact hex as a named brand color.
