Atzin set of 3 Tequila/Mezcal Glasses

At Sazon we take our tequila and mezcal very seriously and are always looking for ways that our clients can enjoy the subtleties that this amazing distillate has to offer.

When we were last in the Valle de Guadalupe tasting new wines, we met Jaime Villalobos, a maker of seriously good tequilas and cousin to the Sauza family, one of Mexico’s oldest tequila houses. His cousin, Guillermo, is responsible for Fortaleza, one of Mexico’s premier tequilas and certainly a favorite of ours.

Jaime introduced us to a new tequila glass design that has been specifically designed to enhance the experience of drinking tequila and mezcal in their blanco, reposado and anejo forms. We blind tasted against the Riedel tequila glasses, and frankly it was no contest. Hands down all of us chose the new glasses as giving us the most intense and pleasurable experience

Designed and manufactured by Kristalov, these glasses are available exclusively through Sazon. They come in an attractive tube that has one each of the blanco, reposado and anejo glasses.

Tequila Blanco Glass: The shape of this glass softens the perceptions and emphasizes the aromatic notes. It provides a pleasant sensation in the mouth and excellent final taste.

Reposado Glass: The shape of this glass directs the aromatic concentration towards the nose, emphasizing the perception of delicate aromas and guiding the tequila directly to the tip of the tongue.

Anejo Glass: The shape of this glass concentrates aromatic components so that primary, secondary and tertiary aromas can be fully perceived and appreciated.
