CLASE AZUL Añejo

Tasting Notes:

Clase Azul Tequila Gold is an incomparable tequila joven, a blend that combines Clase Azul Tequila Plata with a special reposado tequila matured in French oak casks and an Extra Añejo aged in American whiskey casks and finished in sherry casks. Medium bodied with aroma of green apple, orange peel, raisins and light notes of almond and walnut. On the palate, we find toasted wood, ginger, cocoa and dark chocolate.The Clase Azul Tequila Gold decanter challenges the impossible: its shimmering glass is fused against a black ceramic base, a technique that took our experts 6 years to develop.

Food Pairing:

Fatty fish with lemon, Tapenade, white chocolate with citrus jam.

The mezcal's decanter, inspired by the raw elegance of black clay, showcases a hand-carved design by Mazahua community artisans. Its vibrant cap is the handiwork of Wixárika artisans, who employ beeswax, resin, and colorful beads, enhancing its cultural significance. A three-day, slow-roasting process involving firewood, volcanic rocks, and hand-dug pits imbues the spirit with its characteristic smoky profile.

With a full body and a complex palette, Clase Azul Mezcal Durango presents citric and herbal aromas, alongside notes of green olive, cooked agave, and clove. The palate is treated to sweet nuances of peanut and unrefined brown sugar, layered with smoked wood and chocolate, finished with a touch of ripe fruit.
