All the Age, None of the Color
Cristalino is the best of both worlds: the vanilla, toasted oak and cooked-agave depth of an 18-month añejo, filtered crystal-clear for a clean, elegant sip. Romantico's version keeps the wood notes front and center — velvety, subtly spiced, unmistakably agave. Compare it with other cristalino tequilas at Del Mesa Liquor, or try its unfiltered extra-añejo sibling from Romantico.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Cooked agave with soft wood hints and delicate sweetness. Palate: Cooked agave with intensified wood notes — vanilla, toasted oak, subtle spice, velvety smooth. Finish: Clean and elegant, sweet agave and subtle oak.
How to Enjoy
Neat or over a single cube to show off the clarity; it also makes a refined cristalino margarita that keeps the agave up front.
