Casamigos Jalapeño Blanco is a distinctive spirit that marries the smoothness of premium tequila with the fiery zest of jalapeño. This 1L offering from the Casamigos brand, co-founded by George Clooney, Rande Gerber, and Mike Meldman, is crafted using 100% Blue Weber agave sourced from the Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. The agave piñas are roasted in traditional brick ovens for 72 hours before undergoing an extra-slow fermentation process lasting 80 hours—significantly longer than industry standards. This meticulous attention to detail yields a tequila that is exceptionally clean and crisp in its base form.
Infused with the essence of jalapeño peppers, this blanco variant introduces a bold twist to the classic profile. The infusion process is carefully managed to ensure that the peppery notes complement rather than overwhelm the natural sweetness and subtle citrus undertones inherent in the agave spirit. On tasting, one can expect an initial smoothness on entry quickly followed by a crescendo of spice that lingers pleasantly on the palate without overpowering it. The result is a harmonious blend that offers versatility—equally enjoyable when sipped neat or as a dynamic component in craft cocktails where it imparts depth and character with its unique flavor profile.
Producer Notes: Casamigos Tequila
Casamigos Tequila, a brand with roots in Mexico, is the brainchild of friends George Clooney and Rande Gerber. They’ve crafted a name for themselves in the spirits world with their smooth, small-batch tequilas made from 100% Blue Weber agaves. While they started with tequila, Casamigos also offers a mezcal, which is known for its smoky flavor profile that differs from their tequilas’ clean finish. Their range includes a Blanco that’s crisp and fresh, a Reposado that’s rested for just the right amount of time to gain complexity without losing its youthful vigor, and an Añejo that’s aged longer for those who appreciate deeper notes of caramel and vanilla. Each bottle reflects their commitment to quality and has become quite popular among those who enjoy fine spirits.

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.
