The typical cristalino process begins much like any other tequila with agave. El Mayor uses only 100% Blue Agave. Once the agave is selected, the hearts of the agave head to the distillery to be cooked and fermented. Then, the tequila begins its aging process. Once aged, the tequila is an aejo. The finished aejo is carefully filtered through ultra-fine charcoal, removing the golden brown color. The result is a stunningly clear tequila that maintains the robust character of an aejo while delivering the crisp finish of a blanco. A cristalino truly is the best of both worlds!
