Milagro Select Ultra-Premium Tequila: Award-Winning Brand Relaunches With Design-Forward Campaign
NEW YORK, Oct. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Milagro Tequila reintroduces its ultra-premium Milagro Select Barrel Reserve (Milagro Select) with a bold, bright new look for its award-winning liquid. To celebrate the sophisticatedly modern makeover, Milagro will select three individuals to have their home bars reimagined into a perfect refuge for at-home entertaining by noted designer and home entertainment expert Athena Calderone, Founder of EyeSwoon. Beginning October 14, 2020, U.S. residents 21 years of age and older can create videos showing their at-home bars and why they want to work with Athena specifically, using the #MilagroSelect #Entry #Contest hashtags. Milagro Select and Athena will select three people to receive a stylish home bar makeover to include those items the winners need, like a bar cart, glassware, bar accessories and more, valued at a minimum of $2,000: an at-home oasis to be enjoyed on nights alone or responsibly with a group of friends.
Milagro Select offers a modern sophistication to the traditional tequila approach. The brand has always been rooted in modern Mexico, and the new look recalls the bright, bold spirit of Mexican architecture, such as Mexican architect and engineer Luis Barragán, known for his sleek lines and vibrant colors.
“Milagro Select is a celebration of heightened experiences and the beauty and dynamic spirit of modern Mexico,” said Jill Palais, Senior Brand Manager, Milagro Tequila. “In developing a new look for our award-winning tequila, it was only natural to look to artists, architects and innovators who have all helped shape Mexico for inspiration.”
Each bottle, engraved with a Blue Agave plant, features a vibrant pop of color that stands out on any shelf. Milagro Select, known for its agave-forward and smooth taste, is available in three variants: Silver, Reposado and Añejo, each with their own bold signature color, blue, orange, and yellow, respectively. Each variant has been lauded with awards and accolades over the years, and most recently Silver received the prestigious gold medal at the 2020 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
“Milagro Select is best enjoyed during the unexpected moments of playfulness and pleasure in life, whether that’s on a sandy beach, out at your favorite bar, or at home,” added Palais. “Of course, with people spending more time at home now, which for many is doubling as an office and cocktail bar, creating a proper entertaining refuge has become more important than ever. We felt Athena’s approach, aesthetic and talent made her the perfect partner to help make this a reality for three fans of Milagro Select.”
Athena Calderone is a multidisciplinary creative whose work spans design and entertaining. Whether she is layering flavors in the kitchen, setting a bountiful table, or designing an entire room, Athena is renowned for her graceful yet juxtaposed pairings. Across her creative endeavors, she is fueled by her belief that beautiful food and thoughtful design brings people together and transforms little moments into lasting memories.

About Milagro Tequila
Milagro Tequila was founded in 1998 by Danny Schneeweiss and Moy Guindi, 2 wide-eyed college friends who decided to take a chance and create a tequila that better reflected the hopeful spirit, endless positivity, and anything-is-possible creativity of Mexico City. Milagro Tequila is truly defined by its ultimate balance of fresh agave taste and exquisite smoothness and is made from 100% blue agave from the Jalisco Highlands, where the finest, sweetest blue agave in the world is cultivated. The Milagro Tequila range consists of six expressions, with Silver, Reposado and Añejo expressions of the Core and Select ranges respectively. All Milagro expressions are double-distilled and undergo a 36-hour slow roasting process in traditional brick ovens to extract all the nuances of the precious agave flavor. The unique distillation process uses both pot and column stills to retain the vibrant, mouth-watering flavors of agave and impart an exquisite smoothness that compares to the finest white spirits in the world.
The Milagro Select range is an ultra-premium tequila devoted to the essential elements of the liquid, and confidently lets them shine. With the individual barrel numbers printed on each label, you know you’re getting, award-winning liquid; Milagro Select Silver was awarded a Gold Medal in the 2020 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. The new, premium bottle is inspired by the clean lines and architecture of Luis Barragán and the sophistication of modern-day Mexico. All Milagro Select expressions have an ABV of 40% and range from $39.99 to $54.99.
