About this bottle
Contraluz Cristalino is a small-batch artisanal mezcal from Mexico that takes the traditional roasted, smoky mezcal profile and filters it clear, removing the color the spirit would normally carry while aiming to preserve the underlying agave character. Produced using traditional methods — pit-roasted agave, stone-crushed fermentation, and copper pot distillation — the filtration step is what sets the cristalino apart from a standard joven mezcal. Expect a smooth, crisp mezcal with citrus, smoke, and earthy notes despite its clear, almost water-like appearance. It's a good pick for drinkers who want mezcal's smoky character in a lighter-looking, blanco-style presentation.
How to drink Contraluz Cristalino
Sip it neat over ice to appreciate the smoky mezcal character despite the clear pour. It also makes a striking, clean-looking Mezcal Margarita.
