Tasting Notes
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.
For years, the only way to sample this was to visit our distillery in Tequila, Jalisco. Until now.
Unfortunately, we can't ship to PO Boxes and APO addresses.

An amazing bargain for a one of a kind tequila
The flavor of this tequila makes me wonder why there aren't more still-strength tequilas on the market. It the blanco of blancos, and exactly why blancos are about all I buy lately. The fruit and minerality of the agave shines through, as does the masterful work of the distillers. It's beyond delicious. A tahona-cold bargain at this price. Blows so many others away.
Fortaleza Blanco Still Strength
One of the best HP blancos I have experienced. The unique taste of green olives and pepper made it outstanding!
