CLASE AZUL Tequila Reposado

Clase Azul Mezcal Durango is a mezcal crafted from papalote agave native to Guerrero, Southern Mexico. Crafted over ten days, it features a complex, slow-roasting process involving firewood, volcanic rocks, and hand-dug pits. The drink has citric and herbal aromas, green olive, cooked agave, and clove notes, and a complex palate with sweet nuances of peanut, brown sugar, smoked wood, chocolate, and ripe fruit. It pairs well with fresh goat cheese, red plum, and white chocolate.

Clase Azul Tequila is 100% made from Blue Agave, but that’s not what makes it special. The craftsmanship that goes into producing Clase Azul Plata puts it in a class of its own. Not only is the tequila itself a pleasure to consume, but the decanter is a work of art in its own right. Each decanter is hand-painted by talented artists.

Tasting Notes: 

AROMA: Fresh aromas of orange, lemongrass, and mint. Hints of vanilla, green apple, and green tea.

FLAVOR: Vanilla, meyer lemon, fresh mint, and a hint of green guava.

Food Pairing : 

Citrus-marinated white fish.

Fresh cheeses (panela, mozzarella) and some aged cheeses such as Grana Padano, with cherry tomatoes and chimichurri (cilantro, oregano, and basil).

Ripe strawberries with white chocolate.

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.

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.
