Fortaleza Blanco Still Strength Tequila 750mL is tequila in its purest and most authentic form — bottled directly from the still without dilution, capturing the bold, unfiltered essence of traditional agave craftsmanship. Produced at the legendary Destilería La Fortaleza in Tequila, Jalisco, this small-batch, additive-free spirit showcases the Sauza family’s five generations of dedication to time-honored tequila-making traditions.

Crafted from 100% Blue Weber Agave, Fortaleza Still Strength Blanco is slow-roasted in stone brick ovens, tahona-crushed, fermented naturally in open-air wooden vats, and double-distilled in copper pot stills. Bottled at 46% ABV (92 proof), it delivers an amplified flavor experience — rich, earthy, and bursting with cooked agave, citrus, and mineral notes. For those seeking true, old-world tequila character, Fortaleza Still Strength Blanco is as close as it gets to sipping straight from the heart of the distillery.
