Volteo Cristalino Tequila 750mL

Volteo Cristalino Tequila

Cristalino Reposado Tequila | 40% ABV | 80 Proof | 750mL | Jalisco, Mexico | Organic Blue Agave | French Oak Wine Barrels | Activated-Carbon Filtered

Process & Profile

Volteo Cristalino combines barrel maturation with filtration to create a clear tequila with an oak-influenced profile. Made at Destilería Casa de Piedra in Jalisco, it starts with organic blue Weber agave grown in the region’s volcanic soils. The brand identifies organic agave, natural yeast, and water as its three ingredients, without added sweeteners, colorings, or flavor enhancers.

Production includes slow cooking in masonry ovens, fermentation in stainless steel, and double distillation in pot stills. Cristalino then ages for at least three months in French oak wine barrels before activated-carbon filtration. This sequence distinguishes it from an unaged blanco: clarity comes after time in wood.

The maker describes cooked agave and oak at the center of the palate, supported by fruit, vanilla, chocolate, and spice. A silky texture connects those richer notes with a fresher herbal side. The handmade, individually numbered bottle pairs a textured upper section with a dark lower finish and silver-toned neck detail.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Sweet cooked agave, vanilla, plum, citrus, and caramel, with clove, pepper, and subtle herbal notes.

• Palate: Rounded agave and oak with fruit, chocolate, vanilla, and warming spice; the texture is silky and balanced.

• Finish: Tobacco and floral nuances give way to mint, eucalyptus, and a light smoky impression.

How to Enjoy

Start neat in a tulip-shaped tasting glass to compare the aromas with the first sip. Add a few drops of water, then revisit the glass as it opens. Try a small pour over one large ice cube if you prefer a cooler serve.

For a food pairing, consider a small piece of dark chocolate or lightly roasted nuts. Keep accompaniments simple so you can follow the tequila’s changing character rather than overwhelm it.
