Clase Azul Mezcal Guerrero
What makes Clase Azul Guerrero Mezcal special?
A treasure from the tropics. Guerrero Mezcal is made from a rare agave plant gown in the remotest part of Mexico, the state of Guerrero, hence the name! This wild agave creates both sweet and savoury notes presented in a jade green decanter adorned with ancient Mexican symbols.
Clase Azul cannot resist a challenge. Journeying to the wild tropical state of Guerrero they harvest one of Mexico’s rarest agaves. Each Papalote plant is selected from the states rain-soaked forests. This quest inspired the mystical markings on the decanter and the spirit inside.
Clase Azul Mezcal Guerrero Review
If you expect a variation on a tequila, then you are in for a big surprise. Clase Azul Mezcal Guerrero has a big, original taste. It is nothing like a tequila.
Nose:
A surprising and bold aroma. Salt and vanilla first followed by notes of flowers, grapefruit and a light smokiness.
Taste:
Taste earthy, peppery flavours, hints of sweet agave, spices, cinnamon and citrus.
Aftertaste:
Long finish with salt a and light smoke that lingers long after the last sip.
Appearance:
A jade coloured handmade decanter decorated with ancient Mexican symbols…what is this story here? Jade was the precious stone used by the ancient Mayan people to carve figurines of deities. The flower symbols signify an ancient god called the Fifth Sun, the creator of all life. The hummingbirds on the hand painted wooden cap had a mystical role in ancient Mexico. The small birds were seen as the messengers of the gods and their image was worn as talismans by the Aztecs. The hummingbirds are also major pollinators of the flowers of Guerrero.
Price:
Clase Azul Guerrero is in the upper price range of mezcals. The main contributing factors are both the rarity of the wild agaves used and the high quality of the green mezcal bottle. Pricing Clase Azuil Guerrero at £339.99 per 700ml bottle makes Premium Tequila one of the most competitively priced online retailers in the UK.
