Tequila Clase Azul Reposado 375 ml
Clase Azul Reposado (375 ml "half bottle") is a luxury reposado tequila that offers a smooth, rich profile with strong vanilla, caramel, and cooked agave notes, softened by eight months of aging in American whiskey barrels. Its flavor leans sweet and silky, with a touch of fruit and spice, making it an excellent tequila for sipping — especially for those who enjoy dessert-like warmth in their reposados.
Key Specs & Production
| Spec | Detail |
|---|---|
| Brand / Producer | Clase Azul, NOM 1595 (Casa Tradición), Jalisco, Mexico. |
| Type | Reposado (lightly aged) tequila |
| Aging | Aged for 8 months in used American whiskey barrels. |
| ABV / Proof | 40% ABV (80 proof) |
| Bottle / Presentation | The famous hand-painted ceramic decanter with cobalt blue accents. Iconic design valued as much for display as for the content. |
Tasting Profile
| Element | Notes |
|---|---|
| Appearance / Color | Pale gold with golden highlights. |
| Aroma / Nose | Cooked agave, agave nectar, strong vanilla, hints of candied orange peel, toasted wood, subtle hazelnut and light baking spice (clove, maybe a dash of cinnamon) |
| Palate / Taste | Sweet at first—vanilla and cooked agave lead, followed by butterscotch / caramel tones. Mid-palate has touches of orange or citrus peel, oak, soft pepper or spice. The texture is silky and rich. |
| Finish | Lingering, smooth, with vanilla and oak present, and a sweet-spice aftertaste (often clove or mild cinnamon). Not extremely long, but pleasant and polished. |
What Makes It Special
-
Bottle design / artistry: The ceramic decanter is hand-painted and has become a hallmark of Clase Azul. More than just tequila, it’s a visual statement.
-
Aging in whiskey barrels gives it added complexity (vanilla, oak, caramel) beyond what many reposados offer. Balance of flavor and sweetness: While it is sweet, it is not flat; the agave, oak, spice, and citrus keep it layered and lively. Good for those transitioning from blanco or looking for something richer.
Serving & Pairing Suggestions
-
Neat or on a large ice cube to appreciate the vanilla, oak, and cooked agave depth.
-
Cocktail ideas: A refined reposado Old Fashioned style, tequila and soda with a citrus twist, or a sipping Margarita where the sweet reposado replaces blanco.
-
Food Pairing: Grilled meats or pork, citrus-glazed seafood, desserts with caramel or chocolate, vanilla bean ice cream; or creamy cheeses — smoked provolone works nicely.
