Casamigos — roughly translated as "house of friends" — was founded by Rande Gerber in 2013 in partnership with actor George Clooney. You might remember Rande Gerber as the husband of model Cindy Crawford, but he is also a serial entrepreneur in the restaurant and Spirits business. The entire Casamigos line of Tequilas and Mescal are made the right way at the Productos Finos de Agave Distillery in Jalisco along with many other premium brands. That means the products are the "real deal." Sales have taken off and the brand is now owned by Diageo.
Casamigos Reposado is everything that you expect in a rested Tequila. It’s made from 100% Weber Blue Agave raised in the red clay soils of the Jalisco highlands. The piñas are slow-roasted for three days in traditional brick ovens and crushed. Importantly, the agave juice is fermented for eighty hours using a proprietary blend of yeast strains … and yes, it’s a closely-held secret. It’s aged for seven months in “reconditioned” ex-Bourbon casks and bottled at 40% ABV.
The Flavor Spiral™ shows the most common flavors that you'll taste in Casamigos Tequila Reposado and gives you a chance to have a taste of it before actually tasting it.
We invented Flavor Spiral™ here at Flaviar to get all your senses involved in tasting drinks and, frankly, because we think that classic tasting notes are boring.

Tequila goes bad with time. Once you open a bottle of Tequila, you better be in the mood to drink it. Generally, you have one to two months before oxidization and evaporation diminish the Tequila quality and destroy the Agave flavor profile.
Beautiful body in this. Hints of vanilla and has a sweetness to it. Goes down really smooth and is enjoyable to just sip on.
Robert,
Very smooth
John,
Pretty smooth, solid.
Tyler,
My first Tequila review, and this one definitely wasn't a bad one to start off with. For me the dominant note of the nose and palate is rich butterscotch. It is definitely a sweeter tequila than I typically find. After that rich desert quality, is a little vegetal astringency and earthiness. Short finish
Andrew,
Great Tequila and makes great margaritas, but still mellow enough to enjoy on its own without getting burnt out.
Alaric,
Too sharp for my taste. Overpowers the natural flavors.
Craig,
Smooth sipper, not usually a tequila fan. Nice complex flavor without the soapy tequila aftertaste I get from most brands.
Andrew,
Deserves its reputation. An easy sipper with great balance and complexity. The smoky notes are a mice touch.
Joshua,
Caramelly smooth!
Brian,
Very smooth tequila with a vanilla after taste.
Karen,
I really like this tequila. Very smooth, almost caramel-like. This is definitely a sipping tequila on the rocks, neat.
David,
Amazing! Full body and flavorful! Best neat when chilled! Perched another already!
Michael,
sweet on the nose with vanilla and caramel. sweet agave, caramel, wood and smoke on the palate. This is a nice tequila
Rosie,
Sweet bouquet on the first smell. Honey and caramel notes. Taste is smooth and caramelly. A little smoke at the end. Very good. Definitely will enjoy sipping!
Alan,
I really enjoyed and highly recommend.
Lee,
I'm typically not a big tequila fan, but this is the one tequila I will drink. Incredibly smooth with an amazing smokey, buttery, vanilla nose and the taste perfectly pairs with the nose.
Susan,
Before it was sold, it was great. Now it's caramel "flavored". I will no longer drink this fake stuff.
Kevin,
Some damn fine tequila
Matthew,
Ultra smooth, this was my introduction to their line of tequilas, great flavor and one of the smoothest you can get on the market. Always sip, shots are a waste
Donald,
Excellent. For the price. You can’t beat it. Smooth. Smokey. A hint of vanilla
Tharon,
OMG, I love the vanilla and caramel notes in this tequila.
guest,
Haven’t found a reposado tequila yet I like more in this price range
Rabecka,
I love the vanilla back and how smooth it is going down. The chill enters so clean.
Daniel,
A very drinkable reposado tequila. Carmel and agave on the nose. Smoke carmel, cardamom, clove, and a sweet finish.
John,
Very rich with some pepper up front, giving way to a powerful vanilla taste and agave that lingers. Incredibly smooth with no burn at all.
Chase,
Tasty in spirit forward cocktails.
Lorien,
Sweet, great flavor you can drink on the rocks
Troy,
Smooth, a little sweet, a little smokey. Tried it with a little honey and citrus. Really enjoyed this so far. Likely to be my go to bottle
Leah,
Love it. Smooth, but not lacking oomph. Well balanced.
Ken,
The best tequila that I have ever tasted. Sweet and oaky with undertones of cinnamon and molasses
Jason,
One of my favorites. It’s hard to beat in terms of value and price. It’s very smooth with vanilla and honey up front.
Bruce,
Sweet and oaky with undertones of cinnamon and molasses. Even a hint to tamarind.
Chad,
Great sipping tequila! Very smooth with nice agave and suble oak flavor. No bite and goes down easy!
Danny,
Worth getting. Smooth and works great on its own or on the rocks.
guest,
Always come back to this one!
Michael,
wow, that is a smooth tequila. enjoyed it chilled
Jason,
I like Casamigos in general. Easy to drink - decent complexity.
guest,
Smooth and drinkable at a great price point
Geoffrey,
Renewed my appreciation for Tequilla.
Daniel,
A smooth, smoky agave tequila. Love the vanilla and honey after taste. Shots, sipping or mixing with bourbon and/or rum was all great. Definitely on my home bar list.
guest,
Great smooth tequila. My wife and family love this one!
Howard,
About $10-15 overpriced in my humble opinion.
Keara,
Sweet and nice, with a spicy black pepper finish
Acacia,
Love this stuff. Way to go George! Almost caramel. Yum.
Thomas,
smooth and flavorful with a little punch at the end. I think I prefer the Blanco version
Nick,
Smoothest tequila I’ve ever tasted. Doesn’t need anything added to it. The bourbon of tequila.
Kris,
25$ tequila + George Clooney = 50$+ tequila/mezcal soooooo not worth it
Rachel,
Super smooth and very flavorful. A wonderful tequila to enjoy on the rocks.
Aaron,
I love the finish of vanilla! My favorite tequila
Chad,
Makes me rethink the way I drink tequila. Will definitely buy again. The bottle is elegantly simple that makes it look like a timeless classic.
Monica,
Just had some again today. Very smooth with a vanilla and honey finish. Will buy some soon!
Adam,
smooth, sipping tequila
guest,
I’m normally a whiskey and whisky drinker and have never really drunk tequila before, except for cheap stuff mixed with orange juice and the like, but in the spirit of broadening my horizons I thought I’d give this a shot and very glad I did.
Has an up front citrus hit like the Teeling Poitin but far, far smoother. Can get the vanilla hints from the oak barrels too.
Very happy this is my first experience with Tequila and look forward to many more
Antti,
is an outstanding agave aged for 7 months in American white oak casks, that have been reconditioned after originally being used for premium-aged whiskey. This tequila has taken on notes of home-made caramel, roasted agave & buttery vanilla, with a twinkle of oak-y spice & smoke on the finish.
Cass,
A pleasant, warm-feeling tequila. A great after-dinner drink.
Kevin,
Smell vanilla, taste earth and fruit and hint of nut
