You can use /git/ref/tags to get all the tags and from that find the commit data, which will have the date.

fetch('https://api.github.com/repos/jquery/jquery/git/refs/tags/3.0.0')
.then(function(response){ 
    return response.json();
 }).then(function(tagData){ 
    return fetch(tagData.object.url);
 }).then(function(commitResponse){
        return commitResponse.json();
 }).then(function(commitData){
    console.log(commitData['committer'].date)
 })
