Clase Azul Repesado


Clase Azul
Reposado Tequila in a Fine Ceramic Bottle

The perfect marriage between the finest tequila and a beautiful hand-crafted, hand-painted Mexican fine ceramic bottle. Produced and bottled in Jalisco, from 100% agave (weber blue agave) and twice distilled. Aging for 8 months in fine oak barrels gives Clase Azul distinct, smooth flavors and aromos, as well as an excellent balance over the palate.

All of Clase Azul Talavera Bottles are hand painted and hand made which makes the unique.

Mr. Chauvet, a well traveled tequila enthusiast, stated that he first tried Clase Azul at the Feria del Tequila, in the town of Tequila and has consumed numerous bottles since. With an admitted preference to tequila añejo that's a glowing endorsement for this reposado.
A few years ago I first got my first look at these fabulous, artisan vessels of Clase Azul on a visit to La Cofradía where the brand was origionally produced. It's now produced at Productos Finos de Agave. The Sole Importer, Tequilas Premium, Inc. is very proud of this popular 8 month reposado and it's recent awards and accolades; Gold Medals from the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and the Beverage Testing Institute of Chicago. As well Anthony Dias Blue gave us a 92 rating and featured us in the May issue of Pattersons. Check out the Importers impressive site for more information about Clase Azul and their other premium products. The site also has great details about the process of the Productos Finos de Agave factory.

This has come out as a sleeper Tequila and is winning fans all over the world!!
