The Best 10 Tequilas to Sip on All Summer Long
From country singers to movie stars, and even a Jonas brother - our list of tequilas is filled with the best of the best so you can find the perfect tequila to sip on all summer long.
Hot summer days are quickly approaching, and what better way to spend the summer sitting by the pool or soaking in the sun than with some delicious tequilas. Check out our list of tequilas that will have you buzzin’ all summer long.
1. Clase Azul
Clase Azul describes its product as the creation of a “community of artisans” with “shared vision, heart, and soul.” This authentically Mexican tequila will take your cocktail game to the next level, transporting you to a sunny, palm-filled patio as you sip, no matter where you are.
Master Distiller Cirilo Oropeza spent years refining his tequila, balancing the process with the art of the perfect batch. Oropeza’s passion for creating the perfect bath, along with his strict attention to detail, allowed him to create a tequila of great quality that everyone can enjoy. Epsolon’s proud rooster logo encourages us to stir things up in every sense -- so let the sipping begin.
3. Casamigos
Launched by the fame of founder George Clooney, Casamigos was a joint effort between the actor and two longtime friends, Rande Gerber and Mike Meldman. The collective goal was to create a tequila so good that it doesn’t need to be covered up by salt or lime. This tequila speaks for itself.
The passion project of country artist John Wolfe, Juan Lobo Tequila is a nod to the nickname John earned from fans over years of touring. Don’t be fooled by John’s Texas roots: Juan Lobo is a true product of Mexico, borne in the highlands of Jalisco and harvested by the Vivanco family (fifth generation agave farmers know a thing or two about what really makes a tequila top-shelf).
5. Don Julio
Don Julio takes pride in its title of “world’s first luxury tequila.” Don Julio Gonzalez revolutionized the tequila world by changing the tall bottle design (for easy storage underneath a table) to a smaller, shorter bottle -- encouraging anyone drinking it to place it on top of the table, instead. Now, it is the perfect addition to your summer bar cart, and still the right size for easy access.
Tequila ArteNOM breaks down its selections by region, separating styles by altitude, heritage, and distillation technique. Whether you are daydreaming of a breezy sea town or a hike in the highlands, this brand has the tools to take you there.
7. Santo Spirit
Santo Spirit is all about teamwork. Chef and television personality Guy Fieri teamed up with musician Sammy Hagar to bring Santo Spirit, inspiring another new duo: the world’s first agave blend from 100% Blue Weber Agave and 100% Espadin Agave. Let what the team describes as a “holy union” shake up your summer.
8. Villa One
Nick Jonas has a stacked resume: former teen idol, current actor and musician, and now, creator of an ultra-premium tequila. Launched late last year as a result of a partnership with Master Distiller Arturo Fuentes (known as the “Godfather of Tequila), Villa One is here to help you experience “life as it should be.”
9. Teremana
Teremana means “spirit of the earth,” and this tequila captures that essence well. Created by Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, this small-batch tequila is made with the earth and all who inhabit it in mind, from sustainable sourcing to top-notch standards for distilling.
10. Código Rosa
For those who like to stop and smell the roses, Codigo Rosa is a perfect choice. This tequila is aged in Napa Cabernet French White Oak barrels, giving it both unique color and flavor. Stay fresh, light and floral all summer long with this selection.

How to stop your thoughts from controlling your life
Have you ever stopped to ponder how many of your thoughts serve to propel you toward your life's aspirations, while others seem to act as invisible chains, hindering your progress? Do you truly wield control over the myriad streams of thought flowing through your mind? These are the profound questions that struck me during my transformative stay at a Buddhist monastery nestled in the serene forests of southern Thailand, four years ago. Life in the monastery was a stark departure from the bustling modern world – with its wooden pillows, straw mats, predawn wake-up calls, and marathon 10-hour meditation sessions each day.
