Clase Azul Reposado Tequila, 70 cl

Product Information

Tequila may be bottled without maturation or aged in oak barrels. The length of aging determines how it is labeled: Colorless blanco or silver tequila is aged fewer than two months in oak; reposado between two and 12 months; añejo for more than one year. Extra añejo is a category added in 2006 that includes tequila aged at least three years in oak vats under 600 liters. Generally, the longer tequila ages in oak, the smoother and more full-bodied it becomes. The fermentation length, temperature and yeast affect the development of flavor compounds or congeners that produce a specific tequila style. Some producers add piña fibers called bagasse to the fermentation vessel to enhance the complexity of the spirit. Regulations demand that tequila be double-distilled in pot stills, or produced with a continuous still that has at least two columns. A tequila labeled simply “gold” or “joven” is unaged, possibly with caramel coloring or other sweeteners added. Pair with seafood and fish that has a high-fat content like tuna, salmon, octopus, lobster, shrimp, mussels, and clams, which you can cook with butter and yellow lemon (avoid limes).

What makes the Clase Azul Añejo special? This tequila from Clase Azul is a symbol of Mexican tradition and culture. Made with slow-cooked 100% Blue Weber Agave. Making it the ultra-premium reposado tequila that is unique and incomparable.

The blue agave plant can reach eight feet in height and matures at around six years old. Sugars collect in the core of the plant, the piña. Producers chop up the piñas and cook them in large ovens, then press the juices from the cooked pieces and ferment them with yeast. Spain lifted the ban for good in 1792, and in 1795 gave a license for the production of tequila to Jose María Guadalupe de Cuervo, maker of what is now the world’s best-selling tequila, Jose Cuervo. This blue agave juice may make a 100 percent agave spirit, or the producer may add up to 49 percent non-agave sugars, such as sugar cane or corn sugars, to make a “mixto” or “regular” tequila.Aromas of agave syrup, green apple, orange peel, fresh figs, raisins, and a light note of almond and walnut It’s also a brand that has far more to show off about than just its liquid gold.
