Fortaleza Blanco Still Strength is an unfiltered, undiluted expression of Fortaleza’s iconic blanco tequila, offering a rare look at the spirit exactly as it comes off the still. Produced at NOM 1493 in the Tequila Valley, this still strength release is bottled at 92 proof and captures the raw intensity, depth, and authenticity of traditional tequila making. For years, this expression was only available to visitors at the distillery in Tequila, Jalisco, making it one of the most sought-after releases among tequila aficionados.
Crafted from 100% Blue Weber agave, the agave is slowly cooked in stone and brick ovens, crushed using a traditional stone tahona, and fermented in open-air wooden tanks. The tequila is double distilled in small copper pot stills using natural spring water from the Tequila Valley. Unlike the standard blanco, no water is added prior to bottling, preserving the full character and strength of the spirit. Each bottle is presented in hand-blown glass made in Mexico.
