About the brand
Clase Azul is an ultra-premium luxury brand founded in 1997 by Arturo Lomelí. Known as much for its iconic handcrafted ceramic decanters as for its high-quality spirits, the brand is a tribute to Mexican culture and artistry. Each bottle is individually sculpted and hand-painted by artisans in the small town of Santa María Canchesda, making every decanter a unique piece of art. The "Plata" (Silver) expression is the brand's cornerstone, designed to showcase the unadulterated flavor of the agave.
