Country: Mexico

Clear color. Sweet aromas and flavors of milk chocolate, coconut flakes, cocoa butter, lime peels, almond milk, and simple syrup with a creamy, tangy, moderately sweet medium body and a warming, interesting, medium-length finish that exhibits notes of dulce de leche, white and black pepper, black tea tannins, agave, marzipan, warm honey, licorice, and caramel. Subtle nose grows to pleasing flavors on the palate and finish that would lend themselves well to a Tequila Espresso Martini.

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.
