Clear color. Aromas and flavors of apple cider vinegar, brown butter, pastry dough, and toasted sesame with a round, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a warming, interesting, medium-length finish with impressions of tart green apple, sweet cream, lemon curd, almond cookie, and fresh cut grass. A light, citrusy Cristalino Tequila to be enjoyed in the sun.
