About Casamigos Blanco Tequila
Ok, Clooney, you can act. But, can you source, market, and build a tequila brand?
Well, the world’s largest spirits company sure thought so, partnering with George Clooney and his partners, Randy Gerber and Mike Meldman, to turn Casamigos into the world’s fastest growing tequila. Where George and his founding partners brought a human touch, starpower, and a polished image to the brand; Diageo brought serious expertise and production capabilities in the tequila space.
From NOM 1609, Casamigos is produced at Diageo’s world class distillery in Atotonilco El Alto, Jalisco, alongside its sister brand, Don Julio. Respected for its approachable palate, many consumers appreciate vanilla and brighter/sweet notes, and versatility for cocktail making. Casamigos has become a mainstay of many cocktail bars around the world.
Meaning “house of friends” in Spanish, George and his partners intended the brand to bring friends together. Unassuming but familiar and friendly, Casamigos is a wonderful addition to any home bar.

Production Details
Casamigos Blanco Tequila is made using traditional production methods that involve slow roasting the agaves for 72 hours and double-distilling the tequila in copper pot stills. The tequila is then rested for 2 months in stainless steel tanks to allow the flavors to mature and blend together.
