Nose
As we popped the bottle, we were welcomed with the aroma of heavy vanilla notes and excellent hints of tropical fruits. It is creamy, with earthy agave, black peppercorn, and chili spice which is complex on the nose. We also picked the aroma of rocket leaves, citrus, lemon, apple, sweet green agave, and some vegetal notes.
Palate
Casamigos Tequila Blanco is sweet with complex notes of vanilla, lemon, tomato leaf, and fresh mint. There is a hint of oak on the palate and subtle notes of cinnamon and pepper. Unlike other Blanco tequilas, Casamigos Blanco can be easy to drink because of its sweet taste, but some tequila enthusiasts find it too sweet for a Blanco. However, it is a good tequila for margaritas, especially when mixed with strawberry and pineapple.
Finish
Casamigos Blanco is a delicious, fruity, and smooth-tasting tequila, and the liquor offers a luscious and long finish. The peppery agave note at the back end makes it stand out from the rest of the tequilas today.
First Sip
Casamigos Blanco is approachable, sweet, and smooth on our first sip. It has the right balance of sweetness that we look for in Blancos. We noticed it has complex vanilla, citrus, mint, and cane sugar flavors on the nose and palate. The fruit-forward notes become more evident as it goes down our throat.
Second Chance
We tried drinking Casamigos with ice for the second round, and the palate profile took us by surprise. We had a lot going there, from the mint, and citrus, to creamy and high vanilla notes. The ice helps improve the spirit’s taste, making it more palatable and enjoyable to drink. It tasted great with fresh lime juice and salt and blended nicely in cocktails.

George Clooney’s tequila is an impressive bottle, so we will continuously sip it. It may not come from the same distillery where it all started, but the spirit has an excellent flavor profile that makes you want another glass.

Casamigos Blanco is an impressive spirit you can enjoy, especially if you are a newbie trying to explore agave spirits. While you can sip it neat, it works wonders with ice because it tunes down the palate profile of the Blanco. Aside from its sweet palate profile, it boasts a smooth flavor and rich notes of mint and vanilla. While it is a celebrit...
