Clase Azul 2025 Anejo Tequila Dia De Muertos Final Edition of Nuestros Recuerdos
Clase Azul 2025 Día de Muertos is a lavish, collectible tequila that fuses cultural storytelling, artistic design, and barrel aging. It’s part of their Nuestros Recuerdos limited-edition series, which annually honors aspects of the Mexican Day of the Dead tradition. For serious collectors, occasional sippers, or those who appreciate artisan presentation, it’s a standout. Because it’s aged and finished with bold barrels (American whiskey + Scotch), it carries richness, smoke, and layered depth—less “fun cocktail tequila,” more “display & contemplative sip.”
The 2025 Día de Muertos by Clase Azul is as much a symbolic closing chapter as it is a tequila. As the finale in the five-year series, it’s designed to encapsulate all the artistry, storytelling, and craftsmanship of the Nuestros Recuerdos line. Expect it to lean heavily into premium barrel-aging, nuance, and decorative presentation. Its purpose is both to be sipped and revered — a collector’s release as much as a spirit to enjoy. Because it's a final edition, it may push boundaries in maturation or finishing compared to earlier releases.
Origins & Craftsmanship
-
Part of Clase Azul’s Día de Muertos / Nuestros Recuerdos series: each year a new thematic edition (Sabores, Colores, Aromas, Música) appears.
-
Aged 26 months añejo, first aged in American whiskey casks, then finished in Scotch whisky casks from Skye and Speyside, before recombining.
-
Bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof).
-
The decanter is artistic and symbolic: a plum-colored ceramic piece with a 24K gold-plated movable Catrina ornament (accordion-playing skeletal figure) handcrafted via artisans in Tesistán, Jalisco.
-
The ornament is made of ~40 individual parts from 10 separate molds, assembled by hand.
-
Only 10,000 decanters allocated for this edition.
Tasting Profile
| Element | Notes |
|---|---|
| Color / Appearance | Intense gold (amber tones) from the extended aging and oak influence. |
| Nose / Aroma | Honey, peat smoke, nutmeg, dried plum. |
| Palate / Taste | Smoke (peat), honey sweetness, cinnamon, with hints of chocolate in the mid to late palate; layers of oak influence from both American and Scotch barrels. |
| Finish | Smoky, lingering — the oak and smoke notes persist, with echoes of sweet honey, spice, and chocolate. |
Food & Cocktail Pairings
-
Neat / Sipping Serve: Best in a wide tulip or snifter glass to let aroma evolve.
-
Cocktails: This is more of a contemplative sip tequila, but can be used in high-end tequila Old Fashioned or lightly modified aged tequila cocktails.
-
Pairings:
• Dark chocolate, chocolate desserts — echoes the chocolate & smoke tones
• Smoked or grilled meats (especially with sweet glazes)
• Nuts and dried fruit — roasted almonds, figs, plums
• Rich cheeses — aged gouda, manchego
