About this deal

Except money was never the goal for Clooney and co-founder Rande Gerber. As a pair of millionaires, their focus was more so on creating a delicious, accessibly priced tequila. And ideally one that didn’t leave you questioning your choices from a hangover the next morning. The benefit of this shape comes from its expansive middle, which allows the aromatic compounds of the spirit to gently waft towards your nose. Failing that, you can also drink your tequila from a wine glass. If you are determined to shoot it, look for an authentically Mexican shot glass: taller, thinner, and known as a “ caballito” shot glass — which translates to “a little horse”. Alongside Casamigos Blanco Tequila, the brand also produces it’s popular Casamigos Reposado and Casamigos Añejo Tequilas, along with other non-tequila spirits such as mezcal.

In Mexico, tequila tends to be served chilled and immediately. Elsewhere in the world, it’s often served a little closer to room temperature for optimum aroma and taste benefits. If you’re new to the world of tequila, you’ll probably prefer it chilled for a more mild effect.But Casamigos is not just celebrity hype - since it’s launching, the brand and it’s spirits have won numerous gold medal awards at various competitions such as the Los Angeles International Spirits Competition and San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

The story of how Casamigos started is worth telling. Clooney and Gerber were sitting at a bar one night when building their new homes in Mexico, talking about how they were still yet to find their ‘perfect tequila’ despite trying so many. That night, they decided to create their own original tequila. The brand was founded by George Clooney (yes, the actor George Clooney), Rande Gerber (a nightlife entrepreneur, known more as the significant other of supermodel Cindy Crawford) and property developer Michael Meldman. Originally meant for private consumption between the trio while their Cabo San Lucas (Mexico) vacation homes were being built, the trio tried different tequilas for some time until Clooney came up with the idea to make their own alcoholic drink.

Casamigos Reposado Tequila is made from hand-selected 100% Blue Weber agaves from the rich soil of the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, aged for 7 months, giving it that beautiful silky-smooth oaky vanilla taste. Casamigos Blanco Tequila is a clear, light-bodied Blanco tequila. What is the Casamigos Blanco Tequila volume/size? They tried 700 recipes across 2 years, finally settling on their favourite. After buying over 1000 bottles in a year from the producers they were told that to continue they would have to get a licence. At this point, they decided to go out on a whim and take their tequila public with the help of Meldman who owned the development where Clooney and Gerber were building their houses. The development was called Casamigos, hence the name of the brand, translating roughly to ‘house of friends’. Casamigos Reposado Tequila is a medium-bodied tequila with a rich golden honey colour. What is the Casamigos Reposado volume/size?
