Clase Azul Plata Tequila

Product Description

Clase Azul Plata: The Purest Expression of Agave

Clase Azul Plata is the brand's unaged blanco tequila, the purest expression of the agave itself, bottled straight after distillation with no time spent in oak. Founded by Arturo Lomeli, Clase Azul was built around a mission that extends well beyond the tequila itself: celebrating Mexico's culinary and artisan talent while giving back to the communities behind it. Every bottle is produced at Casa Tradicion in the highland agave country of San Agustin, Jalisco, from 100% organic Tequilana Weber Blue Agave that's slow-roasted in traditional brick ovens for 72 hours before fermentation with a proprietary house yeast.

What makes Clase Azul instantly recognizable is its handcrafted, hand-painted ceramic decanter, a bottle style introduced by the brand and produced by local Mexican artisans, with no two decanters ever exactly alike. That artistry extends well beyond aesthetics: over 100 artisans in the small town of Santa Maria Canchesdá dedicate their time to creating each bottle one at a time, and the brand's commitment to fair wages and community investment has become as much a part of its identity as the tequila itself.

The result is a remarkably smooth, fresh blanco that doesn't taste raw or harsh despite being unaged, a testament to the brand's painstaking production process. Whether displayed as a centerpiece or poured to mark a celebration, Clase Azul Plata delivers the polished, crowd-pleasing experience the brand has built its reputation on.
