Casamigos Tequila REPOSADO 100 % Agave 70 cl / 40 % Mexiko

A seven-month aged tequila from the billion-dollar Casamigos brand.

Want an autograph from George Clooney? The search could end right here: Each Casamigos bottle features the signature of the popular actor, as well as that of his friend Rande Gerber (Cindy Crawford's husband). Yet Clooney is not the millionaire brand ambassador for Casamigos, but the co-founder. In 2013, it all began, as it always does, with a truly "snap idea." With the aspiration of finding a tequila that wouldn't burn in the finish or spread hangovers, Clooney and Gerber tested hundreds of tequilas in Mexico on their newly acquired properties in the village of Casamigos. They didn't need a new recipe, just the right distiller who was already producing the right spirit. The brand was quickly registered and exports began. In terms of marketing, the two knew how to get their message across: There's Clooney on a motorcycle in the Mexican wilderness, Clooney surrounded by laughing, hat-wearing farmers in an agave field, and Clooney at a steamy celebration. In addition, it hailed with awards. The success was so great that Diageo bought Casamigos in 2017 for a billion dollars.
Each Casamigos tequila is roasted in brick ovens for 72 hours and fermented with the addition of a special yeast strain for 80 hours before the actual distillation begins. The Reposado edition is then aged for seven months to take on the darker color and interesting aroma with caramel, cocoa and oak tones.
