Drawing a Blanco

Marcelo Chasi has led a lot of lives: bartender, soldier, fight club enthusiast, salsa dancer (yes, really). And now he’s sitting down with Greg and Damon to talk about the launch of Herradura’s new blanco tequila. They discuss the thinking behind releasing a new clear tequila expression in 2025, what makes this particular flavor distinct, and cocktail trends in New York City and beyond.

Plus, Damon and Greg recap their BCB experiences since they last saw one another, and the aftermath. Turns out everyone survived… this time.
