Description

Small-batch production and an unaged approach define Fortaleza Blanco. This additive-free tequila keeps cooked agave at the center, supported by earthy and vegetal character. Fortaleza makes it by hand, bringing savory and citrus notes together without an aging stage. The blanco is bottled at 40% ABV.

Citrus and cooked agave lead the nose. Butter, olive and earth follow, with black pepper adding a sharper edge. The palate carries citrus and agave into vanilla, basil and olive. Lime adds another bright accent against those savory flavors. A long, smooth finish gives the combination time to linger.

Pour neat into a tequila glass and spend a moment with the aromas before sipping. For a cocktail, use it in a classic Margarita, where fresh lime sits alongside its citrus and vegetal notes.

  • Classic Margarita: Its citrus-forward notes and vegetal complexity make it the perfect base for a classic Margarita. Combine with fresh lime juice and a touch of agave syrup for an elevated experience.
  • Tequila Martini: Mix Fortaleza Blanco with dry vermouth and a dash of olive brine for a tequila twist on a classic martini. Garnish with an olive to enhance its savory characteristics.
  • On the Rocks: Enjoy it on the rocks for a chilled, slightly mellowed experience without sacrificing its vibrant flavors.
