The story behind it

The maker

Casamigos was founded in 2013 by long-time friends George Clooney, Rande Gerber, and Mike Meldman. Originally created as a private collection for family and friends, the brand quickly expanded globally, bringing ultra-premium, highly approachable Mexican spirits to the world stage.

How it is made

Produced in Oaxaca by a fourth-generation family of mezcaleros, this spirit is crafted using traditional artisanal methods. The agave piñas are cooked in earthen pits before being crushed by a traditional horse-drawn tahona wheel.
