CLASE AZUL TEQUILA DÍA DE MUERTOS EDICIÓN LIMITADA RECUERDOS
A Journey Full of Memories
Nuestros Recuerdos is an annual series of five limited-edition creations—an invitation to explore the most exquisite facets of Día de Muertos. The series began in 2021 with Sabores (“Flavors”) inspired by the traditional foods and sweets of the celebration. It was followed by Colores (“Colors”) in 2022, Aromas (“Aromas”) in 2023, and Música (“Music”) in 2024.
This fifth and final installment pays tribute to the very soul of this festivity: the memories that keep our loved ones present, and the symbolic offerings that allow us to celebrate their lives.
Crafted under the direction of Master Distiller Viridiana Tinoco, this añejo tequila is an exceptional blend of spirits aged 12 to 38 months in first-use American whiskey casks.
A portion of the agave was pit-cooked by hand, creating a deep, layered flavor that captures the warmth of memory and tradition. The tequila’s foundation combines masonry and pit-oven agave cooking, yielding notes of roasted agave, sweet orange, caramel, and clove.
For Tinoco, the creation was a return to her grandmother’s kitchen — a sensory memory of wood smoke and love transformed into a “liquid tribute.”

Decanter & Design
The ivory-colored decanter symbolizes remembrance through muted tones and elegant restraint. The base illustration, by artist Erika Rivera, depicts a family ofrenda adorned with cempasúchil flowers, pan de muerto, papel picado, sugar skulls, and candles—each an emblem of memory. The soft silhouettes of spirits watch over, present yet intangible, reflecting the emotional heart of Día de Muertos.
Golden Ornament
Each bottle bears a 24-karat gold-plated locket handcrafted by artisans from Milagros de Latón in Tesistán, Jalisco. Inside lies a polished obsidian cameo, a mirror to eternal remembrance. The face features intricate milagritos—tiny brass charms symbolizing love, protection, and healing—surrounded by sculpted motifs of candles and sugar skulls. Each ornament undergoes more than 50 steps and 12 hours of meticulous work, polished and patina-finished by hand.
