Fortaleza Reposado Tequila, 70 cl

Product Information

As the family business passed over from father to son, many contributions to the industry were made over the years, one of the greatest contributions was helping to establish "Appellation d'origine contrôlée". My journey has seen me as an owner of sophisticated bars and renowned liquor shops, and even as a Mezcal distiller, honing the craft from scratch. Tequila may not be the first drink that's associated with the holidays, but the Fortaleza Reposado 2021 Winter Blend has the qualities of a seasonal favorite. Aged in American and French oak barrels that once stored Marsala wine, this limited annual-release Tequila has an outstanding aroma of sweet creamed butter, dried fruits and cinnamon bark. Experienced Tequila drinkers appreciate reposado Tequila by itself without any garnishes and additives that will change its flavor. However, there are plenty of ways to enjoy Tequila that will allow you to appreciate its natural flavor, regardless of whether you're a novice drinker or a knowledgeable sipper. Sipping It Neat

You simply cannot go wrong with Fortaleza Reposado. It’s popular with beginners and experienced tequila drinkers alike, and you'll want to drink this all day. In the colder weather I've been drinking more aged tequilas, and I must say, I may even prefer this to their blanco, and that's saying a lot. I'm not normally a huge Repo guy, but this can make you a believer fast. This is WORLD CLASS REPOSADO, and I have NEVER found a better tasting Reposado than Fortaleza Reposado. I highly recommend it. I just bought 4 bottles to get me through most of the winter. Flavor: All Tequila is made using agave, so it carries a natural sweetness. While some Tequilas are mixed with additives like sugar cane or molasses, good reposado is 100% agave, which adds some flavor. The wood of the barrel adds hints of dried fruit and warm vanilla to the spirit. In 1976 the business was sold, but the family kept the land with the Hacienda and the distillery, and in 1999 Don Guillermo began the process of getting the old small distillery working again.Fortaleza Añejo is one of the top Añejo Tequilas available in the market, offering a tremendously balanced taste with a satisfying finish. TASTE- medium oils, nice agave presence, buttery and earthy with cinnamon, some vanilla, and spice. Nice presence of citrus, vanilla, caramel, olive and some fruit. This is deliciously balanced and totally amazing. The sweetness and savory notes of this Tequila are perfectly balanced, and the oak flavor is prominent while the vanilla flavor is kept to a minimum. My education and training include a thorough knowledge of agave spirits creation from planting agaves to bottling, including distillation.
