Casamigos Blanco 1L - Item Code: 05673
Tasting Notes and Characteristics:
The first sip of Casamigos Blanco 1L is like a sunlit breeze on a warm Mexican afternoon, bright and inviting with aromas of fresh citrus, sweet agave, and just a hint of vanilla. Crafted in Mexico from 100% blue Weber agave, this tequila delivers a clean, crisp profile that dances on the palate with notes of grapefruit zest and subtle pepper. With an alcohol by volume of 40.00%, it’s lively yet smooth enough to enjoy neat or in your favorite cocktail. Casamigos Blanco finds its perfect match alongside ceviche or grilled shrimp, where its vibrant character lifts every bite and brings out the best in fresh seafood flavors.
Producer Information: Casamigos Tequila
Casamigos Tequila was founded in 2013 by George Clooney, Rande Gerber, and Mike Meldman in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, an area celebrated for its rich volcanic soil and ideal agave-growing climate. The brand’s philosophy centers on creating ultra-smooth tequila that can be sipped neat, achieved through a slow-roasting process for their Blue Weber agaves and an extended fermentation period that imparts a distinctively mellow character. Casamigos is deeply rooted in the traditions of Jalisco but stands out for its approachable style tailored to both aficionados and newcomers. While Casamigos focuses exclusively on tequila—offering Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo expressions—it does not produce other wines or spirits outside this category, maintaining a singular dedication to authentic Mexican tequila craftsmanship.

Tequila is a distilled spirit made primarily from the blue agave plant (Agave tequilana), predominantly produced in the Jalisco region of Mexico, along with some areas in Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit, and Tamaulipas. This unique spirit undergoes a meticulous distillation process, typically involving double distillation in pot stills or column stills. Tequila is categorized into several types based on its aging process: Blanco (unaged or aged less than 2 months), Reposado (aged between 2 months and 1 year), Añejo (aged between 1 and 3 years), and Extra Añejo (aged over 3 years). Each type offers distinct flavor profiles ranging from fresh and herbal to rich and complex.
The flavor and aroma of tequila vary significantly across its categories. Blanco tequilas are known for their crisp texture with fresh citrus notes, peppery hints, and agave sweetness. Reposado tequilas present a softer profile with vanilla and caramel undertones derived from oak aging. Añejo varieties boast richer flavors such as chocolate, coffee, and dried fruit alongside pronounced oak influence. Extra Añejo tequilas deliver complex layers of deep wood characteristics combined with smoothness. Tequila is versatile in cocktails; it serves as the base for popular drinks like Margaritas, Tequila Sunrises, Palomas, and various craft cocktails that highlight agave spirits.
