Clear color. Aromas and flavors of roasted pine sap, citrus peel, vanilla salted caramel, and bitter orange peel with a silky, soft, dry medium body and a tingling, appealing, medium-length finish with nuances of cinnamon cookie dough, black jelly bean, orris root, white pepper, and and fennel. A contemplative sipper that would make an excellent accompaniment to your after dinner espresso.

Cristalino Tequila

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.
