Late last year I had the pleasure of sampling Corrido Cristalino, and I was a huge fan of the tequila's complex flavor, writing that it is "nearly as perfect a blanco as you can get." When I was given the opportunity to taste the new Corrido single-barrel
During the time of U.S. Prohibition, the Corrido, a musical form of Mexican folklore, often honored the tequilero, or tequila smugglers, who gained popularity along the border. The "smugglers" of Corrido tequila are hoping for a similar popularity.
