Fortaleza Still Strength Blanco Tequila 750ml
Description
Fortaleza Still Strength Blanco Tequila is a bold, undiluted blanco from Tequila, Jalisco. Made from 100% Blue Weber agave, it captures Fortaleza’s traditional craft in a more concentrated form. The agaves cook in brick ovens, then a tahona stone crushes them slowly. Afterward, fermentation takes place in open wooden tanks before copper pot distillation.Unlike standard blanco tequila, this expression comes straight from the small copper still without added water before bottling. As a result, it reaches 46% ABV and carries extra texture, aroma, and agave intensity. It feels rustic in the best way, yet it still shows the smooth balance that makes Fortaleza so admired.The nose opens with baked agave, citrus peel, ripe fruit, and green olive. Then earth, butter, black pepper, and vegetal notes add depth. On the palate, it feels full, bright, and mouthcoating. Meanwhile, sweet cooked agave meets lime, olive brine, mineral tones, and peppery spice.This is a standout choice for tequila lovers who want a more vivid blanco. However, it also works beautifully in cocktails because the higher proof holds its shape. Sip it neat to appreciate its full agave character. Or, use it in a premium Margarita, Paloma, Ranch Water, or tequila highball.Pair it with ceviche, grilled shrimp, tacos, roasted peppers, citrus-marinated chicken, or fresh guacamole. The finish is long, savory, and clean, with agave, citrus, earth, and pepper lingering together.
