Clase Azul Mezcal Durango

Clase Azul Mezcal Durango 

Clase Azul Mezcal Durango is a masterpiece of smoky sophistication, crafted from the rare wild Cenizo agave found in the rugged terrains of Durango, Mexico. Known for its deep, earthy complexity, this mezcal balances bold smokiness with refined minerality, making it an exceptional choice for sipping. Encased in a stunning black ceramic decanter with hand-painted silver brushstrokes, it embodies both luxury and artisanal tradition.

What Makes It Special?

Unlike other mezcals that rely solely on smoke, Clase Azul Mezcal Durango offers a beautifully balanced experience, with rich agave sweetness complementing the signature mezcal earthiness. The Cenizo agave grows in Durango’s unique high-altitude, mineral-rich soil, giving it a distinctive depth of flavor. The production process follows traditional methods, including slow-roasting the agave in underground ovens, fermenting with natural yeast, and distilling in copper stills—all of which contribute to its exceptional smoothness and complexity.
