CLASE AZUL 25th Anniversary

The tequila created for this edition pays homage to the iconic Clase Azul Tequila Reposado. Master distiller Virdiana Tinoco reimagined her creation to give it a special touch.

Some of the agaves used to make this blend went through a traditional milling process with a tahona, a method that dates back to the origins of tequila. In addition, its fermentation process was extended to accentuate the citrus and fruity notes of the liquid.

This blend was aged for eight months in two first-use American whiskey barrels, each imparting its distinctive, rich flavour notes.

TASTING NOTES

COLOR: The Clase Azul 25 Aniversario tequila features a fascinating golden amber color that stands out with a captivating brilliance. This tone not only reflects the passage of time in its aging process, but is also a clear indicator of its complexity. The depth of its color reveals a rich maturity that has patiently developed in oak barrels, promising a visual experience that anticipates its sensorial richness.

NOSE: From the first contact with the glass, the tequila releases an aromatic explosion that invites a deep immersion. Sweet notes of agave honey are immediately perceived, accompanied by a light fragrance of ripe banana that provides a fruity and vibrant touch. As it opens, woody notes emerge, the delicate touch of toasted coconut and a soft vanilla background that, together, provide warmth and softness. A nuance of creamy caramel intertwines with bitter cocoa and caramelized apple, creating an aromatic complexity that is at the same time rich and elegant. The malty grain peeks through subtly, adding a layer of depth, while a light hint of spice settles in the background, a reminder of the skill behind its making.

TASTE: As you bring the tequila to your mouth, you experience an extremely balanced and enveloping experience. The entrance is smooth and velvety, with the sweetness of agave honey giving way to notes of caramel and vanilla. Ripe banana makes itself present again, accompanied by a light and pleasant presence of almond, which gives a sensation of creaminess. As the tequila moves across the palate, notes of toasted oak and bitter cocoa emerge, enriched by a subtle mineral touch that gives it a distinctive character. The finish is long and warm, with a cinnamon aftertaste that lingers and leaves a lingering impression, like a signature that marks the memory of each sip. The complexity of flavours intertwine seamlessly, offering a sophisticated and well-structured sensation that is enjoyed slowly, revealing new layers of nuances with each sip.
