Vasanta Anejo Cristalino Tequila
40% ABV (80 proof) | 750mL | Aged añejo, charcoal-filtered clear | 100% Blue Weber agave — Vasanta Anejo Cristalino starts as a fully oak-aged añejo — 100% Blue Weber agave, double distilled at NOM 1466 in Jalisco — then passes through charcoal filtration to strip the color while keeping the barrel character. The result: the complexity of añejo with the brightness of blanco, crystal clear. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
Cristalino is the best of both barrels: look for vanilla and toasted oak on the nose without any color to show for it, cooked agave and honey mid-palate, and a clean, silky finish where the oak spice arrives without heaviness. Among cristalino tequilas, it's the premium-margarita upgrade and an eye-catching sipping pour.
