Introducing Casa Rayos Tequila From BrewDog Distilling Co.

Casa Rayos was born out of a lightning bolt moment, literally. A 100% agave blanco tequila that’s crafted in the heartlands of Mexico, harvested by hand by one of Mexico’s most established distilling families and pays homage to a freak storm that sparked the discovery of the delicious spirit, Tequila.

A BrewDog Distilling Co. creation, who know a thing or two about creating delicious craft spirits, enlisted the expert knowledge of the Orendain family, the third oldest tequila distilling family in the heartlands of Jalisco, Mexico. Casa Rayos is the essence of agave alchemy, blended from over twelve choice tequilas from both copper pot and stainless steel distillations that showcase the true history and craftmanship of the motherland.
Loaded with lime and orange citrus zest Casa Rayos is underpinned by spicy cracked black pepper, pink peppercorn and an earthy component typical of the region in which the agave has been grown. Delicately smooth, coating the palate, this is a tequila that can be sipped or can instantly transform a Margarita and Paloma into something really special.

The name is born from the ‘lucky strike’, a Mexican myth that dictates a lightning bolt once hit an agave plant and fermented the juices inside. As time passed by, tequila was born and techniques for making 100% agave spirits evolved. Maybe the world was trying to show us some secret within. Maybe it was just pure luck. Maybe it was all just meant to be…

The sleek bottle design pays homage to the agave plant, with its defined leaves adorning the azure tinted bottle.
