Description
Tres Generaciones Añejo Cristalino Tequila
This exceptional tequila starts as 100% weber blue agave which is triple-distilled for exceptional smoothness. It is then rested in American white oak barrels for at least 12 months to enhance its character – adding an array of subtle flavors, and a unique smoky finish. Finally, this aged liquid is filtered through diatomaceous earth to gently extract the color, rounding out the flavor profile.

THE PROCESS
Our roots within our heritage run deep. That’s why our tequila is still produced at the same distillery where Don Cenobio began everything back in 1873— La Perseverancia. Our agave is hand selected only when perfectly ripe. We fresh-press our agave, extracting the juice before it is cooked, resulting in reduced bitterness and a crisp, agave-forward flavor.
TRES DISTILLATION
After cooking and fermenting our agave, we take it a step further with our Añejo, Plata, Reposado, and Cristalino by distilling for a third time, rather than the typical two distillations process. As pioneers of this method, we believe this extra step removes most impurities in our tequila, producing a more refined flavor without any harshness or burn.
