Clase Azul Ultra Extra Añejo

Some tequilas were made to be better than the rest, Clase Azul Ultra Extra Añejo is one such tequila. Aged for 5 years, this tequila delivers flavours that grace the palate with the taste of pure luxury.

Clase Azul Ultra Extra Añejo is Special

Clase Azul Ultra Extra Añejo is special because it’s produced in small batches of perfection in a bottle. Only 100 bottles of Clase Azul Ultra Extra Añejo are produced at a time. Produced in Oloroso sherry casks, this tequila features a bold and decadent flavour with a spicy finish.

This premium tequila combines the highest quality tequila, history and art. The water used comes from a deep well and has been filtered in five stages and the agaves come from Los Altos de Jalisco. They are organic and have matured for at least 9 years. The hearts of the plant are simmered in traditional ovens for 72 hours and the yeasts used for fermentation are specific to the Blue Class, following a secret formula.
