Casa Noble Sponsors Broad Stage Opening at Santa Monica College



The Eli and Edythe Broad Stage at the Santa Monica College Performing Arts Center opened with a moving performance by an eclectic stage of performers sponsored by Cass Noble Tequila.


The Theatre’s debut, launching the $45 million project, featured various incredible actors durring the stage reading such as: Dustin Hoffman, James Cromwell, Annette Bening, Rosario Dawson, Ben Acland, Michele B. Chan, Nate Parker, Elisa Bocanegra, and Richard Schiff.


Dustin Hoffman had spent a great deal of the time over the last nine years raising money for the project and is now Chair of the Artistic Advisory Board and is determined to make a difference. Teal Sherer was the first performer to grace the stage in her wheelchair. Hoffman and the Board Theatre ventured out to cast an actor with a disability and send a heart-felt message of inclusion and acceptance to the community. The dazzlingly modern theatre invites diverse performers and theatre goers of all backgrounds with its complete handicap accessible construction and available Assisted Listening Devices.


In addition to the accessibility, the Broad Stage was designed by architect Renzo Zecchetto so beautifully that every seat in the house is a great seat for any theatre enthusiast. The LA Times noted “Inside, its impressive 499-seat auditorium -- which will be asked to handle an eclectic range of performances, including spoken word, art song, orchestral programs and dance -- aspires to both the formal intimacy of an 18th century Italian opera house and the high-tech functionality of a college lecture hall.”

Casa Noble is Proud to Sponsor The Latino Comedic Event of the Year in New Mexico

On may 15th and 16th, a hilarious, once-in-a lifetime event hosted by Paul Rodriguez introduced some of his favorite fellow comedians. Paul has often been referred to as the “Richard Pryor and George Carlin of original comedy” within the Hispanic community. He has starred in over 30 films, countless television series and has performed live to well over one million concert goers from coast to coast.

Although Paul loves playing in New Mexico where he has established a solid fan base, this marked his first appearance at the historic Lensic Theater.

The lineup was an impressive selection of the best new talent in latino comedy circuits, including Dennis Gaxiola as the opening act, followed by Paul Rodriguez himself, followed by the beautiful Astronaut / Psychologist turned comedian Shayla Rivera, then the dark, thick humor of veteran frontman Gene Pompa. The show closed with the explosive, irreverent act of Manny Maldonado, regarded as “the latin Chris Rock” by many.

The show was recorded live for DVD, produced by none other than David Valdes (whose impressive record includes production of movie landmarks such as The Green Mile) and Paul Rodriguez, and directed by the young and talented Gabriela Tagliavini.
Casa Noble hosted the event and provided ultra-premium tequila experience for the VIP guests and the stars at the Presidential Suite reception during both nights. Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico was given a gift of Casa Noble anejo.

CASA NOBLE UNVEILS A BEAUTIFUL SECRET



Brand’s New Logo and Bottle Design to Debut at WSWA



Los Angeles, CA – March 3, 2008 - Casa Noble, the family of triple-distilled tequilas - Crystal, Reposado, Anejo – introduces a new logo and hand-crafted bottle design for the brand at the Wine and Spirits Wholesalers of America (WSWA) 2008 convention being held April 6 – 9 in Las Vegas, NV. To coincide with the brand update, the company has also added a Single Barrel Reposado and a Single Barrel Anejo to their line.

“It is with great pride and pleasure that we unveil a new edition of hand-crafted bottles and with them a new logo for our expanded line of triple-distilled tequilas,” said Casa Noble COO Jose Hermosillo. “This evolution reflects the intent of our brand from its inception, and together, transmits the search for a ‘superior tequila experience’ into reality.”

The company’s new bottle design emphasizes softer curves and refined edges creating a sculpture expressed in glass. Crystal clear glass is used for the Crystal, deep blue identifies the magnificent Reposado, and a unique, majestic purple glass decanter honors an extra- aged Anejo. “The brand’s new logo reflects the transformation of a boutique brand, one supported by exceptional quality and flavor, into a major contender in a fiercely competitive environment,” says brand visionary David Ravandi, the company’s president and co-chairman. Ravandi designed the new bottles and guides the creative direction of the brand.

Casa Noble’s journey as a brand is best described as an evolution. Since the days of the company’s first white Talavera bottles, the beautiful and unique decanters which are now highly sought after by tequila aficionados around the world, Casa Noble’s achievements can be seen everywhere: in the company’s growth, its brand maturity, and through accomplishments that have led to smarter business practices.

“The new face of Casa Noble is more than just an update of visual elements,” said Otto Hoernig III Casa Noble CEO & co-chairman. “It is a deep reflection of the evolution we have experienced in response to the growing demands of true tequila aficionados. Our new look is a living testimony that evolution is something that you can feel, see and taste.”

Alive with tradition, obsessed with quality and pureness, Casa Noble’s respect for the ancient ways of true tequila production is deeply embedded in its products and its stunning new crystal bottles which could not be mistaken for anything but - Casa Noble.

GQ MAGAZINE Editors Pick Casa Noble Anejo


Casa Noble - This family-owned distillery has been producing tequila since 1776, making it the second-oldest in Mexico (behind Jose Cuervo, believe it or not). Made from handpicked agave that's slow-cooked in stone ovens before being triple-distilled, this añejo spends five years in French white-oak barrels. That adds a distinctive character to the quaff, but it maintains the agave presence purists love. As a side note, don't throw away the bottle in a tequila-fueled daze. The accents painted on the black porcelain are real gold.
