Avion Reserva Cristalino  (750Ml)

Description

Avión Reserva Cristalino looks like a blanco but drinks like an aged tequila. It blends añejo, rested 12 months in American oak, with a touch of three-year-old extra añejo. Then it is filtered twice through charcoal. That strips out the color and leaves the spirit crystal clear.

Avión hand-selects agave grown at high elevations in Jalisco. The piñas are slow roasted in brick ovens before fermenting and distilling. It is bottled at 40% ABV.

On the nose you get oak, vanilla and chocolate, warmed by cinnamon. Lime zest, fresh agave and a mineral edge keep it lively. The palate feels creamy, with honey, cooked agave, pepper and cinnamon. Brown sugar and minerality round it out. It closes silky and smooth.

This cristalino has done well with judges. It won Silver at the 2024 International Spirits Challenge. At the 2024 IWSC it earned Silver with 93 points.

Avión suggests you sip it neat or on the rocks. It also makes a striking clear Old Fashioned. For something easier, browse our ready-to-drink picks. Serve it with seafood, rich meats or a dark chocolate mousse. If you love añejo but want a lighter, cleaner look in the glass, this bottle is for you.
