Clase Azul

Clase Azul is a premium tequila producer that has become renowned for its elegant and high-quality spirits. The brand was founded in 1997 by Arturo Lomeli, who was inspired by the traditional Mexican pottery known as “Talavera”. The company is based in Jesús María, a small town in Mexico’s Jalisco region, which is often referred to as the birthplace of tequila.

The region of Jalisco is located in the western part of Mexico and is known for its ideal climate and fertile soil, making it the perfect location for growing the blue agave plant, the main ingredient in tequila. In fact, Jalisco is the only region in the world that is allowed to produce tequila, making it a true mecca for tequila lovers.

Clase Azul prides itself on using traditional methods in the production of its tequila, which sets it apart from other producers. The brand uses the traditional Tahona method, which involves crushing the cooked agave using a giant stone wheel, resulting in a smoother and more complex flavor profile. The tequila is then distilled twice in copper stills, giving it a unique and refined taste.

One of the standout features of Clase Azul is its stunning packaging, which is handcrafted by local artisans. Each bottle is adorned with a unique, hand-painted design inspired by the traditional Talavera pottery. This attention to detail and commitment to preserving Mexican culture has earned Clase Azul a loyal following and a reputation as a luxury brand.
