Ultra Anejo Tequila Cristalino

Category: Cristalino Tequila

Date Tasted:
Country: Mexico
Alcohol: 40%
Clear color. Interesting aromas and flavors of spumoni ice cream, spicy papaya-mango relish, pineapple-cherry danish, and caramel-maple fudge with a satiny, bright, off-dry medium-to-full body and a tingling, amusing, medium-long finish that exhibits overtones of horchata, pink pepper, and pineapple sherbet. A noticeably confected Tequila for shots and creamy cocktails.

Cristalino Tequila

Serve in a Copita
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.
