Hornitos Cristalino Tequila is a masterful blend of aged craftsmanship and modern refinement. Made from 100% blue Weber agave, it begins as an Añejo tequila, aged to perfection in oak barrels before being carefully filtered to achieve its crystal-clear clarity. The result is a tequila that retains the depth and smoothness of an aged spirit while presenting the crisp purity of a Blanco. Available now at Whiskey Caviar.
