Clase Azul's journey began over 25 years ago with the creation of their first tequila and signature ceramic decanter. Inspired by the vibrant land they call home, they have continuously sought to innovate within its rich traditions.
Master distiller Viridiana Tinoco is the creative force behind Clase Azul's agave spirits. Hailing from Durango, Mexico, Tinoco first encountered the tequila industry during her undergraduate studies, where factory visits sparked her interest in agave processing. She joined Clase Azul in 2016 while completing her master's degree in tequila processes. With expertise in quality control and fermentation, Tinoco made an immediate impact, debuting Clase Azul Tequila Gold—initially a limited batch, but its success earned it a place in the permanent lineup. Since then, she has crafted every distillation, including special releases like the Día de los Muertos and Master Artisans tequilas.
