Fortaleza Blanco Tequila 70cl, 40%

Description

Fortaleza Blanco Tequila 70cl, 40% is a premium Mexican blanco tequila from Tequila Fortaleza, one of the most respected names among traditional tequila producers. Fortaleza says its tequila is made using old-world methods, with mature agaves from Tequila Valley in Jalisco, Mexico.

The production style is central to the character of this bottle. Fortaleza cooks its agaves slowly for 36 hours in an old stone oven, crushes the cooked agave with a two-ton volcanic stone tahona, ferments in open-air wood tanks, and distils twice in traditional copper pot stills.

The official Fortaleza tasting profile describes Blanco with citrus, rich cooked agave, butter, olive, earth, black pepper and vegetal complexity on the nose, followed by citrus, cooked agave, vanilla, basil, olive and lime on the palate. This makes it a serious sipping blanco tequila with strong agave identity and excellent cocktail potential.

Collector’s Note

Fortaleza Blanco has strong collector and gifting appeal because it represents a traditional style of tequila production that many enthusiasts actively search for. The use of slow stone-oven cooking, tahona crushing, wood fermentation and copper pot distillation gives the bottle a clear artisanal identity.

The bottle itself also adds interest, as Fortaleza states that its bottles are hand-blown in Jalisco, Mexico, meaning each one is slightly different. This makes Fortaleza Blanco attractive not only as a drinking tequila, but also as a strong shelf piece for tequila collectors and premium agave spirit displays.
