Process & Profile
Clase Azul Reposado is a masterful expression of Mexican tradition. Crafted from 100% organic Tequilana Weber Blue Agave, the plants are meticulously grown for over nine years before being slow-cooked in stone ovens for 72 hours. After fermentation with a proprietary yeast blend, the spirit is distilled and aged for eight months in hand-selected American oak whiskey barrels. This method imparts rich, nuanced flavors of hazelnut, vanilla, and subtle spice, ensuring an ultra-smooth taste that stands out as one of the finest reposado tequilas available. This tequila rests within a handcrafted ceramic decanter, painted by skilled artisans in Jalisco, making every piece a unique work of art. The bottle's iconic bell-shaped top adds a fun, celebratory touch, making each pour a special moment.Tasting Notes
