Centinela Eterno
Cristalino Tequila Añejo

Category: Cristalino Tequila

Date Tasted:
Country: Mexico
Alcohol: 40%
Clear color. Cheesy, candied, tropical, vinegary aromas and flavors of banana, berries, apple, anise, jasmine, and chocolate chips with a full body and a long finish manifesting nuances of umami, coconut, white and black pepper, eucalyptus, and aloe. A Cristalino that retains the flavor of the agave as well as the wood it was aged in; a refreshing example of the style.

Cristalino tequilas are barrel-aged tequilas, usually añejos, that have been stripped of color. They tend to have rounder, more creamy aromas and flavors than blancos and also softer acidity and agave notes. They are designed for sipping.
