Whether you're a seasoned mezcal enthusiast or a curious explorer of fine spirits, below we unravel the captivating aspects of Clase Azul Mezcal Guerrero.

What makes Clase Azul Mezcal Guerrero special?

A treasure from the tropics. Guerrero Mezcal is made from a rare agave plant grown 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 state's rain-soaked forests. This quest inspired the mystical markings on the decanter and the spirit inside.

Clase Azul Mezcal Guerrero review:

Celebrated for its complex flavour profile Clase Azul Guerrero Mezcal delicately combines sweet tropical fruits with hints of smoke.

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 and light smoke that lingers long after the last sip.

Appearance

Ancient Mexican symbols decorate this jade green coloured, handmade decanter, each containing 700ml of Mezcal Guerrero.

The dark green mezcal bottle is linked with Aztec mythology and includes symbols of the “Five Suns”, an Aztec belief that the world has gone through five cycles of creation and destruction. The wooden bottle cap is decorated with hand painted pictures of hummingbirds. The Aztecs referred to these small birds as “the messengers of the gods” as hummingbirds are a major pollinator of all the flowers in the state 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 and design of the green mezcal bottle.
