Clase Azul Añejo Tequila

Product Description

Clase Azul Añejo Tequila: More Than Two Years in American Whiskey Casks

Clase Azul Añejo Tequila is a full-bodied sipping tequila whose character comes from more than two years of maturation in American whiskey casks. The extended aging develops concentrated oak, preserved fruit and spice while retaining a clear foundation of cooked agave.

Clase Azul describes this expression as a tribute to the long journey from agave to finished tequila. Its deep copper color and layered flavor place it firmly within the mature añejo category, intended for slow tasting rather than high-volume mixing.

The hand-decorated ceramic decanter is part of the product’s identity. Its artwork symbolizes the agave’s transformation, with brushstrokes painted in 24-karat gold. As a handcrafted presentation, small visual differences between decanters can be expected.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Intense oak is joined by orange marmalade, apple preserves, roasted hazelnut, cardamom and clove.

Palate: Candied orange peel develops with nutmeg, cinnamon, black pepper and polished whiskey-cask oak.

Finish: Long and silky, carrying toasted wood, preserved fruit and lingering warm spice.

Food Pairings

Clase Azul recommends Camembert, guava and bittersweet or dark chocolate. The tequila also suits roasted duck, grilled steak, toasted hazelnuts and desserts featuring orange or baking spice.

Serving Suggestions

Serve neat at room temperature in a narrow tequila or tasting glass. Allow the pour several minutes to open before tasting. A few drops of water can soften the oak and reveal more fruit, but heavy chilling may mute the aroma.
