Fortaleza Reposado Tequila is a benchmark of traditional craftsmanship and authenticity from the heart of Tequila, Jalisco. Rested in American oak barrels for six to nine months, this reposado captures the sweet spot between the vibrancy of a blanco and the complexity of an añejo. What makes it so good is the dedication to old-world methods: stone tahona-crushed agave, copper pot stills, and slow fermentation in open-air wood tanks, all housed at the iconic Los Abuelos distillery.
Production & Craftsmanship
Fortaleza Reposado is produced using some of the most traditional methods still in use today.
- Agave: 100% Blue Weber agave, harvested at full maturity
- Cooking: Stone/brick ovens (hornos)
- Extraction: Tahona stone wheel
- Fermentation: Open-air fermentation in wooden tanks
- Distillation: Double distilledStill: Copper pot stills
- Additives: Additive-free (no glycerin, caramel, or flavouring)
- Aging: Reposado, aged approximately 6–9 months in American oak barrels
This painstaking process results in a tequila with depth, texture, and unmistakable agave intensity.
What Makes This Tequila Special
- 100% Blue Weber agave
- Traditional tahona-crushed production
- Crafted at NOM 1493
- Open-air fermentation & copper pot distillation
- Classic reposado aging (6–9 months)One of the most respected traditional tequilas worldwide
How to Enjoy
