Xicaru Mezcal Anejo
Fernando Santibañez had a passion for mezcal and its limitless possibilities. Using his years of experience and his love for mezcal, Fernando respectfully combined the traditions of mezcal with those of barrel aging to create a unique expression in Xicaru Añejo. Production. Xicaru Añejo is made with traditional methods from 100% Maguey espadin. It rests for a minimum of one year in medium-toasted, used American oak barrels and is finished to 86 proof. Used barrels are employed to prevent over-aging, and the higher proof helps to maintain the essential characteristics of mezcal. Tasting Notes. The patience required for barrel aging is rewarded with a fuller, more concentrated and complex mezcal. Notes of vanilla and oak contribute a new aroma, flavor and sweetness that delicately balance with the smoke and maguey.

Clase Azul Durango Mezcal
Clase Azul is a Mexican tequila brand that has been sharing the magic of Mexican culture with the world for the past 25 years. The brand was born from a dream to showcase the beauty of Mexican traditions and land. Its iconic decanter, a unique creation made by Mexican artisans, was the starting point of this dream. The name Clase Azul, meaning blue class, was inspired by the blue agave used to make their spirits and the paint on their first Reposado decanter. Despite facing challenges such as natural disasters and financial crises, Clase Azul has stayed true to its ideals and overcome adversity. In 2007, the brand founded Tradición Mazahua, a ceramic workshop where Clase Azul artisans dedicate themselves to creating the brand's decanters as a tribute to Mexican culture. Today, Clase Azul is proud to share the magic of Mexico with more than 55 countries. The brand has transformed into Clase Azul México, but it still preserves the spirit that drives it to showcase the beauty of Mexican culture to the world. Clase Azul México aims to transcend and represent Mexican culture around the world with its exquisite creations and spaces that reveal the heart of Mexico. The agaves used for Clase Azul tequilas grow in Los Altos de Jalisco, a region of red-coloured earth that creates unique properties in the plant. To create their exquisite tequilas, Clase Azul follows a long transformation process that involves slow-cooking the agave piñas in masonry ovens, milling them to extract the sugars, fermenting them with patented yeast, and double-distilling them in copper stills. Clase Azul Tequila Plata is the unaged tequila that captures the notes of the agave, but the journey isn't over yet. The tequila is matured in casks made from oak or other types of wood, allowing it to develop a more complex profile. Clase Azul also honours the tradition of mezcal, which can be made from a wide range of agave species and reflects the soil and conditions that have nourished the agave. The artisanship found in Clase Azul's decanters is a reflection of Mexico's cultural diversity. Each decanter is a creative process that demands artistic drive, technical ability and knowledge passed down for generations. The tequila decanters tell stories through their decoration, while the mezcal decanters display caps decorated with precious artisanal techniques. Clase Azul Durango Mezcal is meticulously created from the Cenizo Agave, a rare agave varietal that thrives in the untamed lands of Durango, located in the northern region of Mexico. The combination of the agave's natural habitat, enriched by mineral-rich soil and nourished by pristine water from natural springs, imparts a distinct and smoky character to this exceptional mezcal. The distillation process of Clase Azul Durango Mezcal remains faithful to time-honoured artisanal methods, ensuring that every bottle encapsulates the essence of ancient mezcal traditions. This dedication to tradition creates a unique profile that is unrivalled in its complexity and depth of flavour. With its bright crystalline appearance adorned with silver sparkles, Clase Azul Durango Mezcal is a sight to behold. Its medium-bodied texture caresses the palate, offering a sensory experience that is both luxurious and inviting. As you delve into the aroma of this mezcal, a symphony of scents unfolds. Citrus and herbal notes dance alongside hints of green olive, cooked agave and cloves, creating an olfactory journey that is as captivating as it is enticing. When it comes to taste, Clase Azul Durango Mezcal truly shines. Each sip reveals a harmonious blend of flavors, including the subtle nuttiness of peanuts, the rich sweetness of brown sugar and honey, and the earthy essence of wood and chocolate. Ripe fruit notes add a luscious touch, completing the sensory adventure that this mezcal offers. The decanter itself is a work of art, inspired by the raw beauty of black clay. Its dark and textured exterior serves as a testament to the craftsmanship that goes into every detail. Hand-carved by artisans from a small community of the Mazahua people, the design on this special piece evokes a sense of timelessness and cultural heritage. Adding a vibrant touch to the decanter is the unique and colourful cap, crafted by artisans from the Wixárika culture. This cap not only adds a burst of colour but also symbolizes the unity of diverse Mexican traditions coming together to create something truly extraordinary.
