Celebrities such as The Rock and George Clooney have helped the stratospheric rise in popularity of Tequila and other agave spirits. But canny consumers will discern whether the stars have a real passion for the spirit.
Stars are following in the footsteps of George Clooney's hit with Casamigos, and the spirit may not be better for it.

Great looking, classy bottle, premium price...Either the craftsmanship will shine through...or it's all marketing.
NOM 1502 | The nose may be the most disappointing component of this tequila. Everything is muted and blends together. I do get agave and barrel. The taste is better at separating notes. I get agave first, followed by barrel flavors of oak, vanilla and caramel. I bit of black pepper. The finish I good. I really don’t have much experience with NOM 1502 but this is good, not excellent.
