Constellation Brands Completes Tequila Acquisition
Constellation Brands has completed the acquisition of the Casa Noble tequila brand. The transaction includes the Casa Noble trademark and inventories. Terms of the purchase were not disclosed.
Casa Noble super premium tequila is a high-quality brand that has posted consistent, double-digit growth. The award-winning Casa Noble family of tequilas includes Casa Noble Crystal, Reposado and Añejo as well as limited production of several other higher-end Casa Noble tequilas.
