Hornitos Cristalino Reserve Añejo is a modern, crystal-clear expression — oak-aged for depth from 100% Blue Weber agave, then charcoal-filtered for exceptional smoothness and clarity.

This cristalino takes a fully aged añejo and carefully filters it to remove color and some tannins, preserving the complex flavor while shedding the heaviness of a traditional añejo. The result is the richness of barrel aging in a smoother, more approachable, crystal-clear pour.

Elegant and versatile, it delivers vanilla, toasted oak, and gentle spice with a clean, polished finish. It's built for drinkers seeking refinement — equally at home sipped neat, over ice, or in a premium cocktail.
