Volcan De Mi Tierra Añejo Cristalino Tequila

Bringing the Cristalino back!

When it comes to celebrating Tequila, there’s much to be put on the pedestal. The sweet sweet Blue Weber agave, the Mexican heritage, the dedicated and hard-working people who have perfected the process of Tequila-making... In the case of Volcano De Mi Tierra Tequila, it’s the volcano that erupted over 200.000 years ago and nourished the soil of the Jalisco region in Mexico to provide the perfect grounds for the perfect Tequila to be born. Oh yes, this brand knows just how many things needed to go right in history for this godly Spirit to come into existence. And the Volcan De Mi Tierra Tequila is taking advantage of them all - this handcrafted from agave to bottle, 100% Mexican Tequila that is also reducing their environmental footprint and helping localities, is simply godsent.

Cristalino is a curious creature - an aged (or extra-aged) Tequila that gets rid of some of those wooden notes that are inevitable when putting Tequila to rest in a cask for a year or more. Filtered through charcoal, the Tequila is restored to its original transparent color, making it cristalino-clear. The Cristalino Añejo from Volcan De Mi Tierra is a blend of an añejo that has been aged in ex-Whiskey barrels and an extra-añejo, aged in ex-Bourbon barrels, so you get a good amount of caramel and vanilla through the nose and on the palate, but the flavors are most subtle, sophisticated. Bottled at an ABV of 40%, this Tequila should be enjoyed neat or on the rocks.
