The World's Best Tequilas- According To The 2025 International Wine And Spirits Competition
The Gold Outstanding medal winners in the tequila category from the 2025 IWSC. Tequila is currently experiencing an unprecedented boom. Its growth in popularity and premiumization is undeniable, moving far beyond its traditional image to become a highly respected spirit. So much so that in 2023, it passed whiskey to become the second most popular spirit by volume; only vodka is bigger in the United States, its biggest market. That has led to a surge of excellent tequilas hitting the market, not just in the U.S. but also around the globe, as drinkers discover Mexico's favorite sip. If you are new to tequila or a longtime fan, finding a great bottle has never been easier, but how can you lay your hand on something truly special? Look no further than the International Wine & Spirit Competition (IWSC). Globally recognized as one of the most important global spirits competitions, the IWSC has been uncovering gems for over 50 years. Its rigorous blind judging by industry experts has established its medals as a definitive benchmark of quality. Earning an IWSC accolade signifies true excellence and provides a critical endorsement in the competitive beverage market. Significantly, seven extraordinary tequilas just earned a Gold Outstanding Medal by earning 98 or more points out of 100 from the IWSC, placing them as the finalists for its prestigious 2025 Tequila Trophy. This recognition places them among the elite in the category, highlighting their exceptional quality and craftsmanship. Any one of these finalists represents the pinnacle of tequila production and would be a worthy addition to any tequila lover's bar. Here is a brief recap of each with the judge's tasting notes. For three generations, the family behind Tequila Cascahuín has been distilling tequila in the municipality of El Arenal in the heart of Jalisco, Mexico. Their award-winning Blanco is a masterclass in pure agave expression. Its distinction lies in its unwavering dedication to ancestral methods, particularly masonry oven cooking, which unlocks profound flavor. The result is a vibrant, clean spirit dominated by authentic cooked agave, underpinned by a compelling minerality and bright citrus notes. Here is what the judges had to say about it: Delicate agave aromas intertwine with a whisper of citrus. The palate builds in intensity, with fresh pepper and flickers of cooked agave. The finish - of green vegetal notes and a touch of spice - offers great length. While Tanteo is widely celebrated for its innovative, spicy infusions, the excellence of its core Blanco should not be overlooked. This 100% blue Weber agave spirit serves as the meticulous foundation for all their expressions, which are crafted through traditional slow roasting in brick ovens and careful small-batch distillation. The Blanco's inherent quality confirms that even the base of an adventurous spirit must be impeccably crafted. Here is what the judges had to say about it: A vibrant aroma profile featuring agave, white pepper, leather, and fresh grass. The palate bursts with rich, agave-forward flavours, revealing curious floral nuances of geranium and sweet spices. The finish of citrus and herbs is both warm and lasting. From the accomplished Productos Finos de Agave Distillery, Campo Azul 1940 Reposado offers a beautifully balanced journey into aged tequila. The "1940" isn't merely a number; it suggests a spirit imbued with classic character; it is the year the brand's founder, Don Ricardo Lopez, was born. This reposado is crafted by cooking mature agaves in clay ovens for 30 hours, allowing for direct contact with steam, followed by an additional 24 hours of slow cooking to release complex flavors and aromas. It is then aged in American white oak barrels for six months. The resulting liquid is remarkably approachable. Here is what the judges had to say about it: Aromas of delicate agave and hints of herbs provide an inviting nose. The palate features vibrant agave notes with sweet and nutty marzipan. Spice and florals are layered throughout. The finish is long, with additional notes of olive and capsicum Sierra Blanco holds a unique and powerful position on the global stage, particularly as a dominant force in European markets. Its special appeal lies not in overt complexity but in its unwavering consistency and broad appeal, serving as a significant gateway for countless consumers entering the world of tequila. While not designed for extended sipping, its clean, straightforward profile of sweet agave and crisp citrus makes it an incredibly reliable and effective spirit for mixing. Here is what the judges had to say about it: Fragrant notes of smoky barbecue meat mingle with intriguing blue cheese and ripe pineapple. The lively palate reveals earthy notes reminiscent of Jerusalem artichokes, brightened by herbal sweetness and a spicy, peppery finish. Delightful rusticity. Pancho Datos, from Casa Marengo, is a tequila with a truly heartwarming backstory. Founded by Luis Carlos Grijalva to honor his poetic grandfather Ricardo Grijalva de Leon, who wrote poems about his experiences in the Mexican Revolution, this reposado infuses every drop with a sense of personal legacy. Made using traditional methods in El Arenal, this tequila is crafted from 7-year-old agave that's roasted in masonry ovens and distilled twice. It's then aged for ten months in ex-bourbon American white oak barrels. That yields a beautifully smooth and inviting sipping tequila. Here is what the judges had to say about it: The nose is a captivating blend of herbal and grassy tones, accompanied by pickled gherkin and spicy pepperoni. On the complex palate, vibrant fruit emerges, supported by a robust herbaceous backbone, while subtle wood adds depth to the outstanding finish. Lagrimas Tequila represents a fascinating exploration of terroir in tequila. Created by Altamar Brands and produced in collaboration with the esteemed Rosales family of Cascahuín, each of their releases is a "Single Ranch" tequila. That means each unique bottling uses ingredients from a single agave ranch to highlight the complexities that different regions can impart on a single tequila style. Their award winning La Loma is the fourth field harvested for the brand and the first from the state of Michocan. It rested for just three months and was a small limited release bottling. Here is what the judges had to say about it: The alluring aroma reveals delicate notes of cooked agave balanced delightfully by a grassy and zesty character. On the palate, herbaceous flickers of curry leaves and dried oregano emerge, complemented by gentle wood undertones and an outstanding finish. Ocho Añejo is nothing short of revolutionary, consistently redefining expectations for premium tequila. Co-created by the legendary Carlos Camarena and the late Tomas Estes, it pioneered the "Single Estate, Vintage" concept. This means each expression hails from agave harvested from a specific, named field, showcasing the unique nuances of that particular terroir and harvest year. Every bottle provides the details of the entire process, making Ocho tequila ideal for vertical tastings. Their Añjeo has been aged for over a year, and it's a collectible masterpiece. Here is what the judges had to say about it: Enchanting touches of orange leaves, sweet grass, spice, and pepper, evocative of an antique Chesterfield. The pure, silky palate unfolds with fresh grass and gentle vanilla, balanced beautifully by lively peppery spice and sweetness. A long, fine cigar finish.

AMZ Prep Launches $2M Tariff Relief Fund to Support Brands Through Supply Chain Volatility
The global fulfillment partner to high-growth DTC and Amazon brands is reallocating $2 million in internal budgets to help brands protect margins and scale smarter. TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / June 2, 2025 / While most logistics providers are adjusting to economic uncertainty by raising prices or pulling back, AMZ Prep is taking a different approach: investing directly into its brand partners. Today, the global Amazon and DTC fulfillment leader announced the launch of its $2,000,000 Tariff Relief Fund, a bold initiative aimed at supporting fast-growing eCommerce brands through the recent 90-day rollback of U.S.-China tariffs. Instead of spending on trade shows, advertising, and internal marketing efforts, AMZ Prep is putting those dollars where they matter most-back into the brands they serve. 'This isn't about lead generation-it's about leadership,' said Blair Forrest, founder of AMZ Prep. 'We believe in showing up for the operators, the builders, and the founders who keep pushing forward, even when the market pulls back. If you're betting on your brand, we're betting on you.' What is the Tariff Relief Fund? The $2M+ fund is designed to provide tangible financial relief to qualified, fast-growing brands who are approved for the program. The initiative includes: In short, it removes the typical financial and operational barriers brands face when switching logistics partners or scaling fulfillment-precisely when timing matters most. 'Every dollar we're pulling from our own internal spend is being reinvested into the success of our partners. This isn't a campaign-it's a commitment,' Forrest added. A Premium Fulfillment Partner, Not Just Another 3PL With over 50 fulfillment hubs across North America, Europe, and Australia-and millions of orders processed each year-AMZ Prep has become the go-to logistics partner for fast-scaling eCommerce brands. But what sets the company apart is its high-touch, enterprise-level infrastructure purpose-built for Amazon, DTC, and omnichannel retail success. Whether it's managing temperature-controlled inventory for beauty and wellness brands, enabling Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) capabilities, or offering global freight and compliance services-AMZ Prep acts as a strategic extension of each brand's team, not just their warehouse. 'Most 3PLs ship boxes. We build infrastructure for growth,' said Forrest. 'From freight and inventory to last-mile and returns, we deliver a full-stack logistics solution with the agility and insight today's brands demand.' Built for Operators. Backed by Experience. AMZ Prep's founder-led story has always been grounded in one belief: Founders help founders. Bootstrapped from a basement to a global logistics network on track to manage over $2B in annual commerce, the company continues to focus on long-term brand success, not short-term wins. The Tariff Relief Fund is a reflection of that ethos-prioritizing partnership, flexibility, and real-world support over sales tactics and buzzwords. 'When the economy shifts, great brands don't wait-they move. And we're right there with them,' Forrest said. 'This fund is about enabling that move. Faster, easier, and with fewer costs in the way.' Now Accepting Applicants The Tariff Relief Fund is available now for brands who meet the program criteria. Interested operators can apply for a custom quote and transition plan. As Q3 approaches and tariff uncertainty continues, AMZ Prep is calling on brands to make their next move count-and providing the tools to do it right. Modern Logistics Infrastructure for the Next Generation of Commerce With a distributed fulfillment network spanning 50+ facilities across North America, Europe, and Australia, AMZ Prep ( ) has evolved into more than a 3PL-it's an enterprise logistics platform purpose-built for the demands of today's high-growth, multi-channel brands. Each year, the company powers millions of DTC, Amazon, and B2B shipments through its global network, while offering end-to-end solutions ranging from international freight and bonded storage to Prime-eligible fulfillment and retail compliance. Whether it's cold-chain operations for temperature-sensitive health products, two-day delivery via Seller Fulfilled Prime, or seamless integrations across ERPs, Amazon, Shopify, and big box retail-AMZ Prep serves as the connective tissue between your supply chain and your customer experience. 'Most logistics providers move packages. We move infrastructure, data, and outcomes,' said Blair Forrest, founder of AMZ Prep. 'We've built a system that's engineered not just for today's scale, but for tomorrow's complexity.' Unlike fragmented fulfillment providers, AMZ Prep delivers real-time visibility, high-touch support, and deeply integrated operations-making it a trusted partner for brands ready to professionalize their backend and scale intelligently across regions, channels, and categories.
