Añejo Cristalino Tequila

Category: Cristalino Tequila

Date Tasted:
Country: Mexico
Alcohol: 40%
Clear color. Aromas and flavors of whisper of vanilla, oak charcoal, lemon cream, and toasted Hawaiian pineapple bread with a round, lively, dry medium body and a tingling, interesting, medium-length finish that shows nuances of toasted hawaiian bread, caramelized agave syrup, black pepper, and toasted garden herbs. All the things you are looking for from a high quality Cristalino; the citrus here is like a toasty pineapple bread with light agave pepper and spice.

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.
