Aroma is fairly neutral, with maybe some possible barrel notes and alcohol. Flavor reveals some vanilla, and a tiny bit of agave. It does have a nice thick mouthfeel. Finish is sweet, but lacking drama or personality. This is one of the few cristalinos that don’t use additives, so that’s good. But it’s also a great example of what you get when you age something only to filter out the color along with the aroma and flavor.
