The new beverage pays homage to the Crystalline Waters of Mayan Cenotes and is made from [100% Blue Weber Agave](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handpicked-agave).

To kick of the the U.S. launch, Espolòn is hosting the Urban Cenote, a mesmerizing, immersive experience in the center of New York City. From September 21st -23rd, fans (over the age of 21) are invited to be visually transported to Mexico's age-old caves and crystal-clear waters while enjoying the first taste of Espolòn Cristalino.

"Espolòn's Cristalino is a testament to our late founder, Maestro Cirilo, who has proven that a truly authentic tequila experience is achievable only through time and passion," said Sean Yelle, Senior Category Marketing Director at [Campari Group USA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/espoln-tequila). "A project years in the making, our Cristalino was created using both traditional and modern techniques, resulting in a one-of-a-kind liquid that celebrates Espolòn's rich heritage and Cirilo's trailblazing spirit."
