Fortaleza Blanco
Tequila Fortaleza Blanco is a tequila that embodies the essence of craftsmanship and tradition. Produced with meticulous attention to detail, this blanco tequila showcases the finest qualities of agave sourced from the Tequila Valley.
The production process begins with the agave hearts being cooked in a stone and brick oven, imparting a distinct character to the spirit. The agave is then crushed using 100% stone crushing, ensuring the release of rich flavors and aromas.
Double distilled in traditional copper pots, Tequila Fortaleza Blanco achieves a harmonious balance and smoothness. The spirit is bottled at 80 proof (40% alcohol by volume), allowing the flavors to shine without overwhelming the palate.
The tequila rests in open-air wood tanks during fermentation, contributing to its unique profile. The sugars used in the production are derived solely from agave, further enhancing the purity and authenticity of the tequila.

What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
