Clase Azul joins the celebration of the Mexican Day of the Dead with a new high-end bottle with which it continues to share Mexican culture with the world through its distillates.
This piece is part of its ‘Nuestros Recuerdos‘ collection, a limited edition of 10,000 bottles that pays tribute to this sacred day in Mexico through music, rhythms and sounds that stimulate the celebration.
The story of the ‘Our Memories’ range had its beginnings in 2021, with liquid works inspired by flavors, colors and aromas. Now, Clase Azul has decided to go further with the collection to transcend on an emotional level with music. So says master distiller Viridiana Tinoco, who embraced the idea of fusing music with sensory notes: ‘I wanted to reinterpret music in sensory chords to evoke nostalgia, as during the Day of the Dead we remember the great moments shared with our loved ones,’ says Tinoco. Aged for 26 months, including time in Scotch whisky barrels, this aged tequila offers smoky and sweet notes reminiscent of the Day of the Dead.
The plum-tinted bottle, designed by illustrator David Espinosa, features a lively, skeletal musical parade with gold accents. A 24-karat gold Catrina figure finishes off the composition of this ode to the craftsmanship of Tesistan, Jalisco, which is priced at $1,500.
