Clase Azul "A Ballad of Fire," also known as
Clase Azul Tequila Blanco Ahumado, is an artisanal unaged blanco tequila that uses ancestral methods to infuse a subtle, delicate smokiness into the spirit, contrasting with traditional mezcal smoke. Its flavor profile features notes of smoked agave, fresh plum, and red apple on the nose, leading to a palate with mineral undertones, fresh lemon, and a silky, smoky finish. The distinctive decanter's design, with its textured ceramic base and copper accents, visually represents the earthen pit cooking and artisanal process used to create the tequila.
The Craftsmanship
Agave Cooking:The 100% Blue Weber agave is slow-cooked in an ancestral earth pit oven lined with firewood and volcanic stone. This process imparts a delicate smoky flavor, distinguishing it from other tequilas.
Fermentation & Distillation:After cooking, the agave is fermented in stainless steel tanks using proprietary yeast, then double-distilled in copper pot stills.
Unaged Spirit:The "Blanco" designation signifies that the spirit is unaged, preserving its pure agave character while showcasing the unique smoke from its pit-cooked heritage.
