Fortaleza Still Strength Tequila 70cl

This artisanal blanco "Still Strength 46%" is historic because this is how tequila was enjoyed over 125 years ago by the Great Great Grandfather of Fortaleza's owner.

Aromas of fruit, baked fully-ripened agave, green olive, and earth are invitingly present. Slightly brighter and a touch more rustic than the regular blanco, the accents of butter, olive, earth, black pepper, and vegetal qualities in the flavor are enhanced because it comes straight from our small copper pot still, without adding water prior to bottling.

This tequila is handcrafted on this family estate, located in Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico, using the primitive stone crushing process from 10% blue agave. The bottles are also made the old way, hand blown by artisans in the town of Tonala.
