The Resume

    Birth name is Don José María Guadalupe de Cuervo
    Built his distillery in Jalisco, Mexico

Why he might be annoying:

    His father and brother were also named Don José Cuervo.
    His father, Don José Antonio Cuervo, actually started the company.
    He named his daughter, Doña Maria Magdalena de Cuervo, after himself (ego-maniac!).
    His daughter inherited the Cuervo family distillery and her husband renamed it Fabrica La Rojeña.
    His family mantra is: 'From the Agave we will get our inner strength.'
    It's perfectly acceptable to drink his tequila with a worm inside your shot glass.
    A 750ml bottle of 'Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia Tequila' sells for as much as $200.
    His company bought an island in the Caribbean, known as CuervoNation (1996).

Why he might not be annoying:

    His corporation, now known as Cuervo y Compania, is still family owned.
    He was granted permission from King Carlos IV of Spain to commercially manufacture tequila (1795).
    On the Cuervo bottles, he has a drawing of a crow (Spanish: cuervo) for customers who can't read.
    Cuervo y Compania is still the #1 Tequila manufacturer worldwide.
    His product is popular amongst college students.
    His distillery gave the local economy a much need boost.
    His tequila is the prime ingredient in margaritas.
