Fortaleza Añejo
While our family had always pushed the tequila industry forward, we are looking back. Using traditional and artisanal methods, our goal is to make the best tequila we can. By doing so we honor our great-great grandfather, great grandfather, and grandfather.

Aroma: Caramel, vanilla, butterscotch, and cooked agave aromas practically jump from the glass in this highly praised and perfectly aged añejo. This tequila is so rich and complex that some people are even able to detect pineapple, peach, orange blossom, nutmeg, and raisin in the nose.
