Washington: Diageo has persuaded a federal judge to dismiss a proposed class action alleging the spirits maker duped consumers by falsely labeling its Casamigos and Don Julio tequilas as "100% agave."
US District Judge LaShann DeArcy Hall in Brooklyn said on Wednesday that the plaintiffs, a group of individual tequila buyers and restaurants, failed to show how they had been harmed. In their lawsuit, the plaintiffs claimed they paid higher prices for deceptively marketed tequila.
