Fortaleza Tequila Reposado

750 mL | 40% ABV (80 Proof) | Reposado Tequila | Tequila Los Abuelos, NOM 1493 | Aged ~7–9 Months in American Oak

Process & Profile

Fortaleza Reposado is crafted in the lowlands of Jalisco at Tequila Los Abuelos using time-honored methods. The agave is slow-roasted in brick ovens, crushed with a traditional tahona wheel, and fermented in open-air wooden tanks. After double distillation in copper pot stills, the tequila is aged for approximately 7 to 9 months in used American oak barrels. This short resting period allows the spirit to pick up a gentle oak influence while preserving the core identity of the agave.

Tasting Notes

  • Nose: Roasted agave, citrus, vanilla, and light oak

  • Palate: Creamy texture with notes of butterscotch, cooked agave, pepper, and cinnamon

  • Finish: Silky and balanced, with sweet spice and lingering oak

What Makes It Special

  • Traditional production using brick ovens, tahona, and copper stills

  • Aged just long enough for balance—without overpowering the agave

  • Crafted at family-owned Tequila Los Abuelos (NOM 1493)

  • Revered by connoisseurs for its authenticity and complexity

  • Small-batch tequila that honors true heritage practices

How to Enjoy

Bad Deal

Was hoping this was primo. The cork did not “pop”. Just slid right out. Cork was shrunken and stained like it had been used before. This was an old tasting sweet tequila not the Fortuleza I’ve had.

Trial run

I was looking for Fortaleza tequila. Not available in my state. I was leary of "the barrel tap" but decided to give it a try. Reasonably priced, and in stock. Delivery was quick. Correct product, sealed and tasty. Not only was the tequila good, but I think I found a supplier for hard to find items. Will use again, nice job. Thanks. Walt
