Milagro super-premium tequila is targeting "urban expressive" consumers between the ages of 25 and 39, brand manager Suzi Cesco tells Noreen O'Leary, in its first-ever consumer campaign. The tagline
for the print and outdoor effort, "Tequila, Evolved," positions the William Grant & Sons brand as trendy and sophisticated.
Danny Schneeweiss and Moy Guindi, who felt tequila options
were entrenched in "donkey and sombrero clichés," launched the brand in 1997. Its estate-grown Agave cactus is roasted in brick clay ovens, distilled through a proprietary method and packaged in
artisanal bottles. Consumption increased 39% over the last year, according to Nielsen data.
"This is a brand for people who appreciate an artistic, hand-crafted, high-quality
tequila," says Cesco.
