Setting the Standard for the Worlds Best Tequilas
New York Weekly
One brand is a shining example of perfection in the world of premium tequilas; it captivates the senses and redefines the art of distillation. Crafted in Jalisco, Mexico’s renowned Los Altos golden triangle region, Tequila Comisario is more than just a spirit, it’s an acknowledgment to the persistent desire of excellence.
Tequila Comisario was established out of a strong love for agave and a dedication to producing the best tequilas possible. Crafted by world-class Tequila Masters in Arandas, Jalisco, each expression is a work of art, carefully created to improve spirits and turn ordinary drinkers into true supporters.
Improving Perceptions, One Sip at a Time
From the very first sip, Tequila Comisario leaves an indelible mark on the palate, altering perceptions of quality and setting a new standard for excellence. The experience is nothing short of transformative, leading discerning drinkers on a quest for perfection in all things. It is a unique Tequila because of its constant devotion to heritage and quality. Crafted from blue Weber agave that is grown on an estate and is 100% natural, every bottle reflects the brand’s commitment to quality.
The Craft of Agave
The agave that is the foundation of Tequila Comisario is produced and nurtured in the Mexican highlands of Jalisco. Filled with flavor and sweetness, these agave plants are harvested at the very peak of perfection thereby providing each bottle of Comisario tequila a unique flavor.
Additionally, Tequila Comisario uses a special extraction method that concentrates on removing the juice from its contaminants to provide a flavor that is unmatched. A carefully selected blend of flavors and aspects that highlight the spirit’s natural character is the outcome of this meticulous process. This Tequila really comes into its own throughout the maturing phase. Every expression is carefully evaluated and refined to achieve uniqueness and perfection. A crucial component in guaranteeing that each bottle of Comisario tequila offers an overwhelmingly wonderful experience is the barrel selection.
Taking Over Las Vegas
One hotel at a time, Tequila Comisario is becoming more and more of a movement than just a tequila in the city of Las Vegas. Prestigious locations include Aria Vegas, Bellagio, Caesars, Fountain Bleu, and Lee Liquor stores carry Tequila Comisario.
Tequila Comisario comes in four distinctive flavors that all highlight the brand’s devotion to quality and craftsmanship.
Blanco: A clear tequila with aromas of spun honey, waxy pear, roasted pepper, and delicate herbs. It offers flavors of dried apple, mineral, yellow pepper, and acacia honey, finishing with a gentle spicy fade.
Reposado: Aged for 7 months in American Oak Barrels, this tequila boasts a pale golden amber color with aromas of pineapple crème brulée, dried tropical fruit, and nougat. It has a medium to full body with anise cookie, herb, and grilled pepper accents, finishing with a long spicy sweet buckwheat honey fade.
Anejo: Aged for 23 months in American Oak Whiskey and Cabernet Barrels, this tequila features aromas of buttercream, dried papaya, caramel custard, and nougat. It offers a dry-yet-fruity, medium to full body with grilled pepper, mineral, and mocha accents, finishing with a long, cocoa and pepper spice fade with a balanced warmth.
Extra Anejo: Aged for 7 years in American Oak Whiskey and Cabernet Barrels, this tequila has similar aromas to the Anejo expression. It offers a supple, silky entry to a dry-yet-fruity, medium to full body with grilled pepper, mineral, and mocha accents, finishing with a long, cocoa and pepper spice fade with a balanced warmth.
I’m here with Luis Cota, President and CEO of Tequila Comisario. We’re going to be discussing today the story behind Tequila Comisario, as well as where Tequila Comisario is going. Luis, thank you so much for being here, I appreciate it.
It’s a pleasure to be with you today, Lincoln.
Please tell how you guys got started, let’s start from the beginning.
Well – by coincidence, really. One of our partners, Rick Darnell, retired NBA player, was the host of the 2012 All-Star Game. At the after party, there were two booths left, and one was Hennessy, one was Tequila Comisario, and the Hennessy Booth was sort of empty. Nobody was there. And this little booth with the tequila was just jammed with people. So, Rick Darnell and Steve Reiss, my two partners, Rick says to Steve, “let’s go take a look.” Steve says, “we don’t drink. Why should we take a look at it? But, let’s go see what it is all about.” They went to look at this booth. They saw this tequila. As it ended, they met the owner who had literally started the brand a couple of years back and had done an incredibly beautiful job of developing a concept, a bottle, and a blend that was absolutely fabulous. Iin 2014, we ended up buying the brand from him. Since then, we’ve become the most awarded brand in the entire industry since its release. And Tequila Comisario, along with the industry overall, has been on this incredible roll. Tequila as an industry now is on track to be a $12 billion category. It’s going to bypass every category and it’s going to be bigger than vodka. As a matter of fact, in two years time, we’re going to pass vodka sales revenue wise, not volume wise. It will be the number one revenue producing category in the industry.
I spoke with someone from the vodka category that was saying that tequila is the most competitive market right now, next to vodka, which has without a doubt always been the leader. But now tequila is one of their biggest competitors as a whole category.
People don’t think about it, but, usually either you’re a brown spirit – you’re a scotch, bourbon, or whiskey, or you’re a white spirit – a gin, or vodka. Tequila competes in both segments. We have two age expressions, Reposado and Anejo. We have a Blanco that is becoming a darling of the mixology world. People love the spiciness, the pepperiness of our Blanco. And people can be so creative, these young bartenders, with what they can do with our Blanco for cocktails is truly impressive
Pro Stock’s Camrie Caruso Looks to Double Up in Chicago Debut
MOORESVILLE, NC (May 15, 2023) — Camrie Caruso packed a lot of success into her rookie season last year. The reigning NHRA rookie of the year took another huge step forward over the first five races of the 2023 season picking up her first Pro Stock win, her second No. 1 qualifier and qualifying for the first ever NHRA Pro Stock All-Star Callout this weekend during the Gerber Collision & Glass NHRA Route 66 Nationals. Caruso will have a new look for this race and the next ten this season as the team switches to the Tequila Comisario Chevrolet Camaro. The combination of a specialty race and an NHRA national event will make for a busy weekend, but thankfully not a new experience for the young NHRA rising star.
“I am glad we raced in the Mission #2Fast2Tasty Challenge during the Winternationals because that was like a warm-up for this Pro Stock All-Star Callout,” said Caruso, who has never competed in a big money Pro Stock race before. “This Saturday race will be a lot of fun and I can’t wait to see who gets called out on Friday. If I get called out I will be ready to take on any of these drivers. I am glad I have three KB Titan Racing teammates in this race with me. This will be a jam-packed weekend for the fans for sure.”
Caruso has never competed at Route 66 Raceway so the wrap around stadium look will be a new visual for the second-year professional. Last year Caruso took on over a dozen new tracks as she cut her teeth in one of the most competitive classes while also figuring out facility and track layouts. As a new member of KB Titan Racing Caruso has more time to focus on her driving and sponsors.
“Last year we were figuring out so many things every time we went to a new track,” said Caruso, who also managed most of the team responsibilities last season. “I have heard a lot about Chicago and I can’t wait to start making passes there. The NHRA hasn’t raced there in a few years, so I hope the fans turn out. We have heard they are expecting big crowds.”
The Pro Stock All-Star Callout festivities will begin on Friday for Caruso and the other seven competitors with a made-for-TV callout event in the pits followed by an autograph session. Saturday the drivers will be paired up for the first qualifying run of the day and following that run the winning driver with the quickest elapsed time will get to pick his or her second-round opponent. The last qualifying session will set up an end-of-the-day final round race that will not count towards qualifying but will hand the winner $28,000.
“It would be so great to win the first Pro Stock All-Star Callout race,” said Caruso. “These are some of the toughest drivers in the category so whoever wins will have some good bragging rights for the rest of the season. I like my chances in the Tequila Comisario Chevrolet Camaro.”
Three weeks ago, Caruso clinched her spot in the specialty race behind the wheel of the Big Jeff Audio Chevrolet Camaro and she picked up her first win driving the Powerbuilt Chevrolet Camaro. The marketing relationships Caruso has established this season have given her the stability and promotional support to focus on driving and fan interaction. Throughout the season she has participated in the “Just the Basics” Q&A with NHRA announcer Jason Galvin and that stage show will pick up again in Bristol at the Thunder Valley Nationals, June 9-11.
“I have enjoyed talking with the fans at events about when the best times to get autographs are or where they can get the best concession food,” said Caruso. “The whole idea with Just the Basics is to give fans some inside info on how the races work and how they can have the best time at the track. Jason and I have had a good time getting to know each other as well.”
Once qualifying wraps up and the quickest 16 cars are set Caruso will be looking to pick up her second win of the season. Currently sitting No. 5 in the point standings the young driver knows that every point is valuable even this early in the season.
“Our goal every race is to get qualified and then win the race,” said Caruso. “With the Mission Challenge there is a positive return if you can at least get to the semifinals because at the next race we could win some extra money and possibly those championship points. This Tequila Comisario Camaro will be ready to go and I have been working to stay focused on the driving.”
Qualifying for Caruso and the Pro Stock class will begin with one session on Friday followed by two more sessions on Saturday. Final eliminations will begin with Top Fuel and Funny Car at 11 a.m. followed by Pro Stock and Pro Stock Motorcycle. The race will be televised nationally on FS1.
