Those hypothetically great ideas, worth billions of dollars, that you and your closest friends come up with over dinner? That’s almost exactly how George Clooney’s tequila brand, Casamigos, was created.

Much like every tequila producer, Casamigos gets its blue weber agave piñas from the red clay soil and relatively cool climate of Jalisco (Mexico). While this affects the overall price of Casamigos tequila, the owners have managed to keep costs reasonable. Indeed, many more Americans are guzzling tequila than ever before. Domestic sales are growing at an average annual rate of 5.8%, according to the Distilled Spirits Council. The explosion is powered by high end offerings, which have seen anincrease in sales of 292% since 2002.

Vanilla, raisins and oak wood are present in the taste, but they do not try to be the lead in the Patron añejo theater. The telltale peppery rush of agave is still in the drink, and is very much the dominant flavor. 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. Casamigos Blanco Tequila comes from the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, produced by the distillery ‘Diageo México Operaciones, SA De CV’. The producer of Casamigos Blanco Tequila 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” is a portmanteau of “casa” — house, and “amigos” — friends. Concocted over lengthy dinners with friends inside their respective houses, which also happened to be inside a Mexican compound called Casamigos, it couldn’t really have been named anything more suitable. And don’t think that Casamigos just has a celebrity appeal. As well as being a firm favorite for friends of Clooney, it’s also a winner of multiple awards around the world. Once you’ve taken a sip of Casamigos, it’s definitely one that you’ll request again. Casamigos Reposado Tequila is a medium-bodied tequila with a rich golden honey colour.

Still, it's not bad for a company that began in the Mexican holiday homes of Hollywood's elite. But analysts question whether Casamigos, which shifted a relatively modest 120,000 cases in 2016, is worth such an overblown price tag.

Casamigos is projected to ship 170,000 cases in 2017, according to the company. While that growth rate is impressive, it remains to be seen whether it can perpetuate such expansion. Casamigos Tequila is one of the most well-loved tequilas today because of it’s ultra-premium taste. The Casamigos brand is famous for being started by Hollywood movie star George Clooney, and is one of the fastest-growing tequila brands in the world. You’re also safe in the knowledge that Clooney and Gerber (and their unidentified master distiller) approve of your bottle, as they personally sample each batch before it’s sold, to guarantee quality control. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it…Again, what could steer rookie and veteran tequila drinkers towards Patron (instead of Casamigos) is Casamigos’ aforementioned lingering bitterness in the finish. In contrast, Patron goes down the throat smoothly, aided by hints of caramel and ever-so-slight white oak smokiness. Casamigos Reposado Tequila is one of the three tequilas (the others being Casamigos Reposado Tequila and Casamigos Añejo Tequila) from the brand ‘Casamigos’ founded by George Clooney and his two friends Rande Gerber, a bar and restaurant tycoon, and Mike Meldan, a successful property developer.
