🌟 Introduction: A New Tequila Trend with an Old Soul
Tequila lovers, meet the game-changer — Cristalino Tequila. It looks like a Blanco, but it tastes like an Añejo. This filtered, barrel-aged spirit is one of the fastest-growing categories in premium tequila, and for good reason.
But what exactly is Cristalino, and why are Añejo drinkers (and even beginners) falling in love with this clear yet complex tequila?
Let’s break it down — and spotlight some of the top-selling Cristalino tequilas available in our store right now.
🧊 What Is Cristalino Tequila?
Cristalino is typically an Añejo or Extra Añejo tequila that’s been charcoal filtered to remove the dark color gained during barrel aging — while retaining all the flavor depth.
🎯 Key Features:
-
Aged in oak barrels for months or years
-
Crystal clear due to carbon filtration
-
Silky, smooth, with rich flavor and a clean finish
-
Ideal for sipping neat or mixing in luxury cocktails
Cristalino offers the best of both worlds — the complexity of Añejo, and the crispness of Blanco.
