1800 Cristalino is where heritage meets innovation, a refined tequila that takes the depth of an añejo and gives it the clarity of a diamond. Rooted in over two centuries of craftsmanship, it begins as 100% Blue Weber agave tequila aged in French and American oak before being filtered to remove color while preserving its rich, complex character. The result is a spirit that embodies modern luxury: smooth, luminous, and undeniably elegant.
