Casamigos Blanco has become a modern favorite for good reason, a smooth, easy-drinking tequila that feels as comfortable in a toast as it does in quiet contemplation. We pour it at Grappa for guests who want polish and approachability in equal measure.
About the Distillery
Casamigos, whose name means house of friends, was founded by George Clooney, Rande Gerber, and Mike Meldman, and grew from a passion project into one of the most beloved tequila brands. The production reflects that care: agave piñas are slow-roasted in traditional brick ovens, and the spirit goes through an unusually long fermentation before distillation. The blanco is then briefly rested, giving it its signature softness.
Agave & Region
Casamigos Blanco is made from hand-selected Blue Weber agave grown in the rich red clay and cool climate of the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. The highland setting tends to produce agave with a softer, sweeter, more rounded character, which suits this tequila’s smooth, gentle style.
Tasting Notes
Crisp and clean, Casamigos Blanco opens with bright agave and whispers of citrus blossom, a subtle vanilla-bean sweetness, and a faint mineral earthiness. The entry is silky, with cooked agave at center stage, a light pepper spice, and hints of grapefruit zest. The finish is long and smooth, the kind that invites another sip.
What to Pair It With
The mellow sweetness of Casamigos Blanco plays beautifully against our Spicy Sausage Rigatoni, the agave softening the heat. It is also a graceful match for our Spaniard Octopus, and a refreshing companion to our Fresh Oysters. Browse the full dine-in menu for more pairings.
