our process
el cristiano is the world’s most delicious and additive-free tequila, made by third-generation master tequila makers, from the finest jalisco highlands blue agave.
el cristiano was conceived by a small group of friends with a passion for tequila and mexico. with over four decades of experience in the tequila industry, we look forward to introducing you to our “familia el cristiano”.
the tequila
el cristiano is dedicated to making pure tequila with no additives (95% of tequila today has sugars or thickeners added). with a high focus on harvesting only mature agave that is aged at least 6 years and of a certain size, we have eliminated any need for additives that change the true essence of 100% highlands blue weber agave.
85% of all tequila brands add sugar, flavor, color, or all of them to make their tequila taste better to their customers. our traditional process is one that has been perfected over generations with zero additives and absolutely no compromise or shortcut.
the taste
el cristiano tequila begins with mature agaves that combine with our proprietary yeast in the fermentation process to develop earthy yet sweet cooked agave notes that blend with the fruity, citrus notes inherent in los altos agaves.
this traditional process gives el cristiano a naturally balanced and clean profile, with notes of caramelized agave, and fruits such as pear and citrus.
