Cocktails are experiencing a serious resurgence-- after all I talk about them enough and come up with some interesting taste tests to sample them. *(hmmm does a Jamba Juice work with a berry or citrus flavored vodka? Or would Hendricks Gin or a smooth, infused tequila be better? Now that's an interesting thought). I do get serious about my liquor though and I have a podcast with a rising star brand that you should know about and a few recipes to test drive.

The fastest-growing spirits brands, CORZO Tequila offers luxury with serious credentials along with a silky-smooth contemporary image that keynotes the concept of modern luxury and a legitimate quality story that separates it from the pack of other spirits in the category.

Created to take the category to a new level of refinement, CORZO Silver tequila is one of the few tequilas to incorporate a triple distillation process for an impeccably clean, ultra smooth finish.

CORZO Reposado and CORZO Añejo are the only tequilas to be mellowed prior to this third distillation, a unique method requiring twice the amount of premium agave as most brands. . The result is a remarkable tequila with the perfect balance of flavor and smoothness. Demonstrating a commitment to excellence unprecedented in its category, CORZO symbolizes a progressive step into the new world of contemporary luxury spirits.
