Celosa Tequila
Being asked to join the board for Celosa Tequila has been a great honour.
Sitting alongside industry greats such as Chris Radomski of Duke Spirits, Hugues Pietrini, former CEO of Stoli Group and Schweppes and the son of Michel Pietrini, Managing Director of Chanel, alongside Jose Alonso Beckmann of the José Cuevo Beckmann family, is an opportunity of a lifetime. Combining our world class experience of crafting premium spirits, we’re working to bring the world a fresh, new Tequila.
Celosa: Jealous - Adjective, Feminine
Celosa is a one-of-a-kind, easy-drinking tequila that’s destined to inspire jealousy in other distillers. Delicate and elegant, it balances its heritage with a modern twist, mirroring Mexico’s vibrant mix of tradition and cosmopolitanism. We’ve partnered with a top distillery, sourced barrels from a premium winery in El Valle de Guadalupe and are working with a fifth generation ‘maestro tequilero’ to select the finest agave.
The romantic pink hue is drawn from the red wine barrels used to age the top quality tequila ‘blanco’, and adds a delicacy that makes it equally drinkable as an aperitif, with dessert or in a cocktail. Celosa is a new and exciting addition to the tequila market, with a fresh, modern appeal that will draw the attention of a young, ambitious and aspirational crowd. I’m excited to harness the same revolutionary approach to crafting the finest spirits that I’ve proven with The Craft Irish Whiskey Co. and Le Portier, and bring it to a new audience.
