Fortaleza Tequila Añejo
About Fortaleza Tequila Añejo
A unique Añejo. Aged 18 months: complex, tasty, and bold, without being overly sweet or too heavy.
“Fortaleza is earthier, sweeter, and full of roasted agave flavor—it has what a wine snob might call terroir. It’s a tequila Don Cenobio would be proud to know his descendants produce.” – Bloomberg

Production Notes
Production methods are strictly old-world, as befits a distillery with this family history. Brick horno oven cooked, tahona stone crushed. Small wood vat for fermenting and distillation in copper stills. Then aged in American oak for 18 months. And that’s it. Nothing more needed for one of the world’s best añejos.
750ml & 80 Proof
