Clase Azul 25th Anniversario Limited Edition Tequila 1L

A stunning presentation. For their 25th Anniversary Limited Edition, Clase Azul created their first decanter completely painted in their distinctive cobalt blue color. Inspired by dandelion seeds being carried by the wind, its feathered motifs embody Clase Azul Mexico’s expansion across the world. Twenty-five of the brushstrokes that grace the surface of the decanter have been hand painted in platinum; one for each year of Clase Azul history.
The tequila created for Clase Azul 25th Anniversary Tequila pays homage to the signature Clase Azul Tequila Reposado. Master Distiller Viridiana Tinoco reimagined its creation to give it a special touch.
Part of the agave used to make this blend was milled using a traditional stone mill called a tahona, a practice that dates back to the origins of tequila. In addition, the fermentation process was extended to accentuate the liquid’s citrus and fruity notes.
Clase Azul 25th Anniversary Tequila was aged for eight months in two different first-use American whiskey casks, each one imparting its own distinct and rich tasting notes.
“Aroma: agave syrup, banana, woody notes, toasted coconut, soft vanilla, a hint of caramel, semi-bitter chocolate, apple and malted grain.
Palate: notes of caramel, vanilla, almond, agave syrup and banana; toasted oak finish, cocoa, slight earthy mineral character”
Clase Azul 25th Anniversary Tequila is 100% made from Blue Agave, produced at one of the highest points in the state of Jalisco. Its climate and land properties offer a characteristic tequila flavor. Each of the agaves is grown for 6 to 8 years before harvest. Organic agave requires approximately 72 hours of cooking in old masonry ovens. The baking gives the agave core a unique sweetness – easily perceived by the complexity of aroma and flavors.
