Its distinctive decanter is molded and decorated by Mazahua natives, a group indigenous to the small village of Santa María Canchesda. Starting from the bottom of the bottle, the spiral appliqué on unfired clay symbolizes the earth's fertility.
When the earth comes in to contact with water, represented by a fine blue line, it gives life to the agave. Once the agave has reached its optimal ripeness and is jimado ("harvested"), the treasured heart of the agave is obtained. Finally, the ornamentation of the bottle concludes at the neck of the bottle with a 24 karat gold vermeil charm medallion and feathered design that distinctively represents Clase Azul.
Each piece is signed by the master distiller and the individual Mazahuan artisan. Thus combining history, art, and the highest quality tequila in an exemplary expression for Clase Azul.
