Founder Arturo Lomeli is a native Mexican. In his early twenties, he opened a bar in his hometown of Guadalajara and launched his first tequila brand, but sales were dismal due to his use of stereotypical elements like "Mexican wide-brimmed hats and mustaches" in his marketing. Undeterred, he decided to return to university to systematically study marketing. After graduating, he drew inspiration from the core of Mexican culture, determined to create a handcrafted product that celebrated "authenticity, tradition, and craftsmanship."
Thus, Clase Azul was born in 1997. The name stems from two sources: "Azul" is taken from a popular Mexican television series at the time and also symbolizes the blue agave plant used to make tequila; "Clase" represents his pursuit of "class and style." The brand's core philosophy is: to create a luxurious spirit that represents Mexico using 100% Mexican culture, tradition, and craftsmanship. Today, Clase Azul has grown into an independent company valued at over $1.5 billion, exporting to 92 countries and generating approximately $150 million in annual revenue.
Jalisco's Los Baios district, nestled at the foot of El Volcán de Tequila, boasts some of the most fertile land in all of Mexico. Clean, natural mineral water filters down from the mountaintop through layers of volcanic rock, creating the purest, sweetest drinking water and irrigation water for Jalisco. This pristine water nourishes Jalisco's rich soils, cultivating the highest-quality blue agave, which matures over 7-10 years. Healthy tequila maturation relies on Los Baios' nutrient-rich soil and naturally filtered water.
Once harvested, these finest agaves are combined with Jalisco's purest water to create the finest tequila. The residents of Los Baios use techniques passed down from generation to generation, drawing on the Spanish heritage deeply rooted in the farmers' blood, to craft their proud tequila.
Winemaking
This Reposado is made from 100% Blue Weber Agave organic agave from the Jalisco highlands of Mexico, slow-cooked in traditional brick ovens for approximately 72 hours. Fermentation utilizes a secret yeast recipe, followed by distillation and triple filtration. The spirit is carefully aged for eight months in American whiskey oak casks, imparting its unique hazelnut and vanilla flavors, and an exceptionally smooth finish. Finally, it is bottled in tall, elegant decanters hand-painted and numbered by local artisans.
Tasting Note
Aroma: Rich in vanilla, molasses, cinnamon, and dried orange peel.
Palmistry: Silky full-bodied with hints of hazelnut, caramel, and a touch of clove.
Finish: Extremely smooth, with almost no burning sensation, leaving a sweet, woody finish.
