Popcorn buttery nose. It get agave. Very sweet nose. Coconut. This taste okay but it has a vodka like taste more than tequila.

For a cristalino it’s not bad. Initially it’s pretty sweet and then a tad bitter on the finish. Plenty of pepper from the añejo.

Tasted clean, lol. Interesting conversation with the brand rep about barrels and barrel staves but I think the whole thing was pointless as most of that is filtered out. I will say that this and the Volcan de Mi Tierra are the only cristalino I would consider. Tasted at 2024 MBTC

Mijenta Cristalino presents a subtle profile with light notes of vanilla and cherry, while the agave takes a backseat, barely making an appearance. The finish is short, with a noticeable medicinal aftertaste that lingers. Given its profile, the price feels steep for the experience, lacking the depth and complexity expected at this level.

Not much on the nose. Flavor is sweet, no agave, and the finish is very short

Vanilla, cherry

Mijenta Cristalino Nose Sweet cooked agave leads the aroma, complemented by tropical coconut notes that add brightness without becoming artificial. The nose is inviting and approachable, with the sweetness remaining balanced and integrated. Taste (TNT) A rich, viscous mouthfeel immediately coats the palate, leaving excellent legs in the glass. Natural agave sweetness is supported by warming cinnamon and black pepper, while subtle tropical coconut notes add another layer of complexity. Despite the sweeter profile, the tequila retains enough spice and texture to stay engaging. Finish The finish is warm and gently sweet, carrying lingering tropical nuances alongside black pepper, cinnamon, and vegetal fermentation. The combination creates a finish that is balanced and expressive, allowing the sweeter elements to coexist with the tequila’s agave-forward character. Overall Mijenta Cristalino offers a thoughtful interpretation of the category by maintaining the distillery’s agave identity while introducing tropical sweetness and refined barrel influence. The rich texture, balanced spice, and lingering fermentation prevent it from becoming overly dessert-like, resulting in a Cristalino that remains both approachable and complex.

Although it’s a cristalino, it manages to hold on to some agave flavor. But overall pretty light.

My first cristalino. Won’t be going out of my way to get any others. If it tried it blindfolded I would never imagine it as tequila. I get zero agave - more like a cheap bottle of butterscotch schnapps. Just artificial, cloyingly sweet and very one-dimensional. I could see maybe using it for shots but pretty pricey for that. And this is supposedly to be one of the better ones. I’d hate to try a bad one.

Coconut, toffee, citrus, honey. Smooth.

Not something I would drink on its own. But makes an excellent tequila and tonic.

Some strange flavors happening for me. Maybe mint…? Good tho!

Unfortunately this was not created for the American aficionado it is for the young antro crowds in Mexico.

Got it for a steal @ $80. Smooth flavor. Love it at this price

I need to taste it again soon, for understanding the product more. I wouldn’t buy a bottle to my self at this point because it didn’t matched my taste profile quite, and again, maybe because I didn’t understand the product and the thing with filter out some of the good bits of the aging process. It felt a bit thin to be honest and without character really.

Tasty tequila, coconut notes, unsweetened vanilla, silky mouthfeel. Long finish.

I'm a big fan of Mijenta & its mission, & the cristalino has a good flavor profile. It has many of the same flavors as the regular reposado - cooked agave (though this isn't prominent) & some sweet baking spices, caramel, vanilla, honey, chocolate with a decent mouthfeel, less creamy/oily than the regular reposado due to the coconut husk charcoal filtering. It does have a fuller flavor profile than most other cristalinos. But unfortunately the flavor profile, though pleasant enough, doesn't stand out like that of the regular reposado. I wouldn't recommend this over the regular reposado, which has a fuller, nice spice bouquet & a better, more harmonious melding of flavors that is missing here. Only if someone preferred cristalinos, would I think to recommend this to them. The price point also brings down the value, unfortunately. I recommend picking up the regular reposado instead for a fuller flavor experience that showcases Mijenta as a brand at its best.

Smooth, some sweetness and slight earthiness on the finish.

Clean. Easy finish.

Not much to it..short finish..couldn’t get much on the nose..was finez

Good for a cristalino, but with that said I am no cristalino fan. Atleast this one has traces of natural agave flavors and not an additive bomb like other cristalinos on the market. The entire Cristalino category is still a money ploy and gimmick to get a 4th product on the shelf imo

Yay another Cristalino. At least it’s additive free. I do get this nose of metallic/medicinal, vanilla, some agave, and caramel without the oak. Palate is better than the nose, it’s a little hot but I don’t get those metallic/medicinal notes. I’ve never been a Cristalino fan as I seem them as absolute gimmicks but if someone asks for a Cristalino, this would be one I recommend… IF it’s in their budget. This tequila loses a lot of points on value, it drinks more like a $50-65 tequila, not a $75+ tequila.
