Product Information:
This luxury Cristalino was originally created to celebrate the 50th anniversary of our Founder Juan Domingo Beckmann Legorreta, for whom our product is named. Maestro Dobel 50 Cristalino is handcrafted in the lowlands of Jalisco, Mexico, using 100% Blue Weber Agaves expertly grown and sourced from a single family-owned estate. It is aged in American and Hungarian oak barrels for a minimum of three years before undergoing a proprietary filtration process that removes the colour but maintains the complexity of this sensational liquid.
To the eye, this perfectly clear cristalino extra-añejo sparkles with steel and platinum reflections, this crystalline appearance is the result of the final filtration process that removes the colour. Aromatically there's a compelling marriage of caramel, honey, cooked agave and dried fruit, such as fig and quince that emerge. Some herbal notes add a touch of freshness stapering to sweeter notes of vanilla and nutmeg on the finish. Its palate is creamy and full flavour, features notes of fig, quince, date, pineapple and pumpkin with the pleasing aftertaste of cinnamon, vanilla, cloves. A ultimate sipper.
