Clase Azul Gold is a joven tequila — a blend rather than a single expression. It marries the brand's un-aged Plata with a Reposado matured in French oak and an eight-year Extra Añejo aged in American whiskey casks and finished in Pedro Ximénez sherry, all from 100% Blue Weber agave and bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof). It is presented in a sunset-inspired decanter that darkens from amber to black, fused to a black ceramic base with 24-karat gold accents.

The Elemental Distinction
  • A joven expression: an complex blend of three distinct aging profiles rather than a single maturation mark.
  • Combines un-aged Plata clarity, French-oak-matured Reposado structure, and an 8-year Extra Añejo finished in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks.
  • Crafted from 100% Blue Weber agave harvested in the Los Altos de Jalisco highlands; bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof).
  • Encased in a sunset-inspired glass decanter fading from amber to black, complete with a black ceramic base and 24k gold hardware.
  • Delivers sophisticated dried-fruit, cacao, and hazelnut notes brought forward by the sherry-cask lineage.
Sensory Profile

Nose: Cooked agave with green apple and orange peel, transitioning into fresh fig, raisin, toasted almond, and walnut.

Palate: Toasted oak and rich fig notes over caramel and vanilla, balanced with green olive, ginger, and dark chocolate.

Finish: Long, oak-led finish showing lingering dried fruit, cocoa, and warm baking spices.

Strategic Position

Gold serves as the master-blended showpiece of the core lineup. It gathers crispness from the un-aged Plata, structural midtones from the flagship Reposado, and heavy dark-fruit textures from an extra-añejo element running parallel to the aged Añejo expression. It caters specifically to collectors seeking high-contrast oak profiles within our premium Clase Azul selection.

Collector Note

The Gold expression presents one of the most mechanically and artistically complex decanters in the permanent portfolio. The execution fuses fragile sunset-tinted gradient glass seamlessly to a heavy, hand-cast black ceramic base from Santa María Canchesdá, trimmed with a signature 24-karat gold-plated flower medallion. Due to manual glazing and assembly variations, each piece represents a distinct individual asset. Confirm the base regulatory mark (NOM) against your bottle to map its precise production window.

Production Methodology

Clase Azul Gold uses slow masonry brick oven cooking before extraction and fermentation. Once double-distilled in classic copper pot stills, the liquid enters a precise three-part integration matrix designed by artisanal blenders. The brightest agave notes stay anchored by unaged Plata, the mid-palate receives structural tannins via French oak reposado batches, and the dark-toned, velvety base notes are drawn from mature 8-year extra añejo stock refined in PX sherry casks.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Clase Azul Gold different from regular gold tequilas?

Commercial gold tequilas are typically unaged spirits mixed with caramel colorants and additives (mixtos). Clase Azul Gold is a 100% Blue Weber agave Joven tequila, which means it achieves its color and complex flavor entirely naturally by blending pristine unaged Blanco tequila with rare French-oak and sherry-cask-matured extra aged expressions.

How should this expression be served?

To properly trace the evolution from bright green apple and agave down into heavy sherry wood, dark chocolate, and walnut notes, serve this expression completely neat at room temperature inside an unchilled tulip or snifter glass. Avoid masking the texture with ice or mixers.
