About this tequila

Cristal Azul was founded by two New York entrepreneurs and is produced in Mexico from 100% blue Weber agave grown in Jalisco, the region that gives tequila its name. The brand came to India in 2025, launching at ProWine Mumbai before reaching Goa and Delhi. Its Blanco is the purest expression in the range: unaged and bottled soon after distillation, so nothing stands between you and the agave.

Expect a clear, crisp spirit with fresh, green agave character, a smooth body and a clean finish. Blanco is the most versatile tequila you can keep at home: good enough to sip chilled, and the right choice for a proper Margarita or a Paloma. Gather friends for a Mexican-themed dinner or a long Sunday lunch and this is the bottle to build the drinks around.
