Fortaleza Tequila has been crafted by five generations, and has over 150 years of tequila making behind their brand. Don Javier, the third generation of tequila makers, was most known for leading the charge to establish the Denomination of Origin for tequila.
Fortaleza tequila is made the same way it was over 100 years ago - with a small brick oven to cook the blue agave, a tahona to squeeze the juices out of the agave, wood tanks for fermentation, and the 2 original copper pots for distillation.
Aromas of citrus, caramel, butter, cooked agave, and sage are the beginning of a pleasingly balanced and very unique tasting experience. Fortaleza Reposado has it's own distinct character, and is not like any other tequila.
The flavors include cooked agave, citrus, vanilla, apple, earth, and cinnamon. The finish is long and rich, delicately spiced, and has an oily texture that make this a joy to drink.
You simply cannot go wrong with Fortaleza Reposado. It's popular with beginners and experienced tequila drinkers alike.
