Fortaleza Blanco Tequila 750ml
$169.99
Regular price $109.99Fortaleza Blanco is produced by fifth generation tequila maker Guillermo Erickson Sauza, a descendant of the Sauza family that helped establish the tequila industry, at his revived family distillery in Tequila, Jalisco. Known internationally as Fortaleza and in Mexico as Los Abuelos, this blanco is crafted from mature, estate grown Blue Weber agave slowly cooked in traditional brick ovens, crushed with a volcanic stone tahona, and naturally fermented in open air wooden tanks using airborne yeasts before double distillation in century old copper pot stills.
Bottled at 40% ABV with no additives, the nose brings cooked agave, bright citrus zest, olive brine, and light herbal notes. The palate delivers butter, black pepper, vanilla, and bursts of bright citrus over a base of true agave character, finishing smooth and clean with lingering citrus and a subtle pepper spice.
Widely regarded as one of the finest examples of authentic, additive-free tequila and a favorite among bartenders and tequila purists alike, Fortaleza Blanco shines neat, on the rocks, or as the foundation of a top shelf Margarita.
