Fortaleza Blanco Still Strength (70cl, 46%)

Fortaleza Blanco Still Strength is a tequila made in Jalisco from fully mature Weber blue agave. It is bottled at still strength, 46% vol., without dilution. The production follows traditional Fortaleza methods: the piñas are slowly cooked in brick ovens, crushed with a volcanic stone tahona, fermented naturally in wooden vats and distilled in small copper stills. On the nose it shows cooked agave, fresh citrus, lime and orange peel, with green olive and white pepper. The palate is full and vibrant, with sweet and vegetal agave notes alongside citrus, black pepper, herbs and light mineral hints. The finish is long, clean and persistent, with spicy and vegetal echoes.
