Gran Centenario Cristalino Añejo Tequila 100% Agave
Gran Centenario Cristalino Añejo is the crystal-clear expression from one of Mexico's most decorated highland tequila distilleries — 100% Blue Weber agave produced through the signature Seleccion Suave process and charcoal-filtered to remove the amber color from the añejo aging while retaining the smooth, complex character the process develops.
The Seleccion Suave process — unique to Gran Centenario — blends a percentage of extra-aged Añejo into each expression before bottling, adding depth and smoothness that standard-aged añejo production cannot achieve. The cristalino filtration then produces the crystal-clear presentation while preserving the vanilla, agave sweetness, and complexity of the aged spirit. Browse all Gran Centenario at Wooden Cork.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Gran Centenario Cristalino differ from the standard Añejo?
The Cristalino is the same Seleccion Suave añejo production charcoal-filtered to crystal clarity. The filtration removes the amber color and some of the heavier wood compounds while retaining the vanilla, caramel, and agave complexity. The standard Añejo is richer and more oak-forward; the Cristalino is smoother, lighter, and more agave-forward in a crystal-clear presentation.
