5 Best Tequila Brands of 2023

4. Casamigos

Casamigos, a premium tequila brand with an A-list history, was co-founded by actor George Clooney, entrepreneur Rande Gerber, and real estate developer Mike Meldman in 2013. All the tequilas in the Casamigos line are made with 100% Weber blue agave with agave piñas that are slow-roasted in brick ovens. One of the distinguishing features of Casamigos is their smooth and approachable taste, as the tequilas have a mellow flavor profile that is well-suited for sipping and mixing in cocktails.

Casamigos reported a whopping 95.6% sales increase to 2.2 million cases in 2021, far outpacing all other million-case-selling Tequila brands. The brand’s volumes have nearly double on an annual basis since 2017, the year it was acquired by drinks giant Diageo plc (NYSE:DEO) in a deal worth up to $1 billion.
