Fortaleza Blanco Tequila 70 cl

Product Information

Producers continued making mezcal with Mexico’s many agave species, but it became clear that one particular plant delivered the best spirits. In 1902, Alsace-born botanist Frédéric Albert Constantin Weber classified this species as Agave tequilana Weber azul, or Weber blue agave. Fortaleza stands out in the Tequila industry by adhering to methods that were once common but have become uncommon due to commercial pressures. Techniquement, la marque de tequila Fortaleza a été lancée en 2005. En effet, Don Cenobio a fondé sa première distillerie en 1873, qu’il l’a transmise de génération en génération, puis une partie du terrain a été vendue, puis rachetée et rebaptisée Tequila Los Abuelos. Mais un rhum portait le même nom, et il a donc fallu régler la question de la marque déposée… bla, bla, bla… Aujourd’hui, ils fabriquent de la tequila sous le nom de Fortaleza depuis dix ans. Tequila may be bottled without maturation or aged in oak barrels. The length of aging determines how it is labeled: Colorless blanco or silver tequila is aged fewer than two months in oak; reposado between two and 12 months; añejo for more than one year. Extra añejo is a category added in 2006 that includes tequila aged at least three years in oak vats under 600 liters. Generally, the longer tequila ages in oak, the smoother and more full-bodied it becomes.

To fully appreciate the qualities of Fortaleza Blanco, it is recommended to sip it neat, allowing the natural sweetness of cooked blue agave to shine through.A cookie set by YouTube to measure bandwidth that determines whether the user gets the new or old player interface. The blue agave plant can reach eight feet in height and matures at around six years old. Sugars collect in the core of the plant, the piña. Producers chop up the piñas and cook them in large ovens, then press the juices from the cooked pieces and ferment them with yeast. The insights I’ve gained aren’t just from books or hearsay; they are the result of hands-on experience, countless tastings, and an enduring passion for these spirits. The fermentation length, temperature and yeast affect the development of flavor compounds or congeners that produce a specific tequila style. Some producers add piña fibers called bagasse to the fermentation vessel to enhance the complexity of the spirit. Regulations demand that tequila be double-distilled in pot stills, or produced with a continuous still that has at least two columns.

This blue agave juice may make a 100 percent agave spirit, or the producer may add up to 49 percent non-agave sugars, such as sugar cane or corn sugars, to make a “mixto” or “regular” tequila. Blanco tequila is different from other expressions of tequila in that it is clear in color and only sees 0-2 months of aging, if any at all. Some professionals say that blanco tequilas are the purest expressions on the market, as they do not see any oak aging.
