Crafted in Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico, at the historic Destilería La Perseverancia, Hornitos Cristalino 75th Anniversary is a commemorative 100% Weber Blue Agave expression celebrating seven and a half decades of Casa Sauza production. Harvested from estate-grown agave, the piñas are cooked in steam autoclaves, crushed in roller mills, and double-distilled in stainless steel pot stills. The spirit is aged in oak barrels for 12 to 18 months before undergoing a specialized activated charcoal filtration process. This filtration strips away the dark amber color while retaining the complex vanilla, toasted oak, and dried fruit characteristics imparted by barrel aging, yielding a crystal-clear spirit with refined smoothness and core agave character.
Food Pairing: Grilled sea bass, lobster tail with butter sauce, fresh oyster ceviche, goat cheese crostini, roasted pork tenderloin, or dark chocolate truffles.
Tasting Notes: Crystal clear with brilliant, luminous clarity, a rich medium body, and smooth, slow-dripping legs.
Nose: Elegant and complex, opening with sweet cooked agave, soft vanilla bean, and toasted oak, supported by subtle floral notes, light cocoa, and fresh citrus zest.
Palate: Silky, round, and remarkably smooth on the palate, featuring caramelized agave and sweet butterscotch upfront before unfolding into layers of toasted oak, vanilla cream, subtle herbal tea, and mild pepper warmth.
Finish: Long, clean, and velvety with lingering notes of sweet agave nectar, gentle oak spice, and a crisp, warm vanilla finish.
Serve: Enjoy neat in a Glencairn or Riedel Tequila glass, over a single large ice sphere, or as an ultra-smooth base for an elevated Cristalino Cocktail or White Tequila Manhattan.
