Clase Azul - Mezcal - Guerrero - Agave Papalote - Premium Mezcal - 42%
Clase Azul is an essential reference among high-end Tequila and Mezcal brands, famous for its uniquely designed and artistic bottles that captivate collectors and enthusiasts worldwide. Each bottle is a handcrafted work of art made by passionate Mexican artisans, embodying the richness and authenticity of Mexican culture. In 2007, Clase Azul founded the Causa Azul Foundation, a ceramic workshop where these sumptuous decanters come to life, thus contributing to the creation of sustainable jobs and the development of local communities.
Clase Azul is produced in the Jalisco region, in the heart of Mexico. The agaves used grow in Los Altos de Jalisco, a region known for its mineral-rich red soil, high altitude, and unique climate that give the agave exceptional characteristics. The production follows a traditional and meticulous process: the agave leaves are removed to reveal the heart or piña, which is then slowly cooked in stone ovens to extract an essential natural sugar. This raw material is crushed and fermented using a patented yeast, ensuring Clase Azul Mezcal and Tequila have a complex, subtle, and perfectly balanced aromatic profile. Unlike Tequila, which is made exclusively from blue agave, Mezcal can be made from various agave species, each faithfully reflecting the terroir, climate, and local artisanal practices.
Clase Azul Mezcal Guerrero is made from a rare and precious agave variety, the agave Papalote. This exceptional plant grows wild in the mountain ranges of the State of Guerrero, where the influence of the coastal climate combined with the freshness of lush forests gives the Mezcal a unique flavor richness, marked by fresh, vegetal, and slightly smoky notes typical of this authentic and preserved region.
