Casamigos Blanco Tequila 750ml

Product Description

Casamigos Blanco: The Tequila Born from Friendship

Casamigos Blanco Tequila began as three friends, George Clooney, Rande Gerber, and Mike Meldman, looking for a smooth, easy-sipping tequila they could enjoy together in Mexico, and deciding to bottle their own when they couldn't find one that fit. Founded in 2014, Casamigos, meaning "house of friends," grew quickly enough to catch the attention of Diageo, which acquired the brand in 2017 for close to a billion dollars.

How Casamigos Blanco Is Made

Made from 100% Blue Weber agave grown in the highlands of Jalisco, Casamigos Blanco starts with piñas roasted in traditional brick ovens for a full 72 hours, roughly ten times longer than standard, then fermented for 80 hours using a proprietary yeast blend, twice the typical fermentation time. After distillation, the spirit rests for two months, tempering the profile into something noticeably smoother and rounder than a typical blanco. It's bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).

Tasting Notes

Nose: Creamy, lifted by warm, earthy agave, a touch of chili spice, black peppercorn, and vanilla pod, with a green, mossy character reminiscent of damp leaves and freshly cut grass.

Palate: Fresh, herbal notes of freshly chopped mint alongside vanilla and subtle agave sweetness.

Food Pairings

The mint and vanilla character in Casamigos Blanco pairs well with fresh guacamole, grilled shrimp tacos, or a light citrus ceviche. Its herbal notes also complement a cucumber and jalapeño salad.

Serving Suggestions

Casamigos Blanco is easy to enjoy neat, on the rocks, or in a classic Margarita or Paloma. It also works well with tonic water for a simple, refreshing highball.
