Distiller Notes
Gran Centenario Cristalino is an expertly crafted blend of their finest Anejo and Extra Anejo tequilas, carefully finished in Calvados casks and filtered through a meticulous process that includes Mexican silver. The result is an ultra-smooth and crystal-clear tequila of unparalleled quality and taste.
There is flawless clarity with hints of silver. Sweet agave and caramel aromas with a touch of vanilla, oak, and apple. Sweet notes of cooked agave seamlessly dance on the palate alongside hints of vanilla beans, baked apple, and oak.
Because of their great complexity, Anejo Tequilas are most often used as a substitute for Brandy or Whiskey in cocktails like the Manhattan or Old Fashioned. Anejo Tequilas must be aged in oak barrels for between one and three years, while Extra Anejo refers to any Tequila aged longer than three years. The prolonged contact with the oak barrel allows the wood to make a much stronger impression on the Tequila by adding toffee, caramel and vanilla to the sweet, spicy agave flavor profile.
