Review: Flecha Azul Cristalino
Flecha Azul Cristalino is crafted from 100% blue agave grown for 8 years on 5000 hectares in the Highland region at Orendain de Jalisco, a family owned distillery operated since 1840.

Flecha Azul is made from hand selected agave that is slow cooked in traditional masonry ovens.
