Don Ramón Platinum Añejo Cristalino is a masterpiece of refinement—an elegant union of aged complexity and crystalline clarity. Double-distilled and rested for 12 months in American oak, it undergoes a meticulous filtration process that removes colour while preserving its rich depth. Aromas of wood, vanilla, cinnamon and roasted nuts lead to a velvety palate of spice, cocoa and toasted almond. With a long, graceful finish, this cristalino shines as both a luxurious sipper and a sophisticated gift.
