Clase Azul Gold

In the realm of spirits, Clase Azul Gold stands out as a beacon of luxury. Its opulent nature and exclusivity have cemented its status among the finest tequilas in the world.

What Makes Clase Azul Gold Special?

This is a blend of three very different tequilas: young, medium and vintage. These are a blanco, Clase Azul’s very own Tequila Plata, a reposado tequila matured in French oak casts, and lastly an Extra-Añejo aged in bourbon casks and finished in sherry casks.

Blending these three together takes the tougher edges off each and leaves a more mellow balanced flavour creating one of the most original tequila flavours ever.

Clase Azul Gold Tasting Notes/Review:

Clase Azul Gold exchanges the sharper notes of single tequilas for softer flavours. It has a silkiness that coats the tongue.

Nose

Clear notes of sweet agave and vanilla fill the nose. A little heat. Hints of fruit and nuttiness too.

Taste

Sweet at the start, a little spice at the end, and all along the way smooth flavour. First vanilla and agave, then notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, fruit and oak appear. Some claim to be able to taste each of the three tequilas in this blend. Can you?

Aftertaste

It’s a smooth finish all the way. You will notice how the taste of agave lingers with hints of oak, green olives, pepper and dark chocolate too.

Appearance

All Clase Azul decanters are made special, but this might be our favourite. To depict the gigantic beauty of a Mexican sunset, the bottom half of the glass decanter lets in light to show off gold tequila inside. The rest of the bottle is black, so creating a setting sun silhouette. The ceramic base is fused by hand into the glass decanter – a feat not only unique to tequila but we would wager any bottle of spirits produced globally.

Each bottle of Clase Azul Gold contains 700ml which is 28 shots.

Price

Clase Azul Gold is a limited edition ultra-premium production placed in the upper range in price comparison to other gold tequilas. It's important to recognise that only the brands with an extremely high class reputation attempt to produce a gold tequila and so you can expect a price reflecting such a brand's quality and image.

What Is the Alcohol Percentage and Proof of Clase Azul Gold?

The alcohol by volume (ABV) is 40% which is equivalent to 80 proof.

Different Ways to Enjoy Clase Azul Gold

This is a special occasion tequila that is recommended to be sipped on its own.

Pairing

You may choose to pair Clase Azul Gold with a meal of fish such as tuna, salmon, octopus and lobster. This recommended pairing enhances the most present notes of spice experienced when observing the aftertaste, additionally this pairing recommendation enhances the overall luxurious experience.

In a cocktail

As a blended tequila with a smooth flavour, this can make a luxurious mixer. As befitting as the sun depicted on the decanter, we think Clase Azul Gold should befittingly used in a Golden Tequila Sunrise cocktail.
