Don Julio Añejo 70 Cristalino was created to celebrate the brand’s 70th anniversary, pioneering the now-popular cristalino category. This unique expression starts as a traditional añejo—aged in oak barrels—then undergoes a filtration process to remove color while retaining depth of flavor.
The result is a tequila that combines the smooth, clean profile of a blanco with the complexity and richness of an aged añejo—making it both versatile and refined. The 375mL format is perfect for gifting, sampling, or premium small-bottle offerings.
