Fortaleza Blanco Still Strength Forty Six 750 ml

Straight off the copper pot still at 46% with no water added — that is the entire idea behind Fortaleza Blanco Still Strength, the tequila regulars just call 'Forty Six.' It is made the slow way at Destilería La Fortaleza in the town of Tequila: Blue Weber agave cooked in stone ovens, crushed under a volcanic tahona wheel, fermented in open wood tanks, and run through small copper stills. Skipping the usual dilution keeps the agave oils intact, so cooked agave, citrus zest, olive brine, and black pepper land with real weight. It is additive-free and genuinely allocated — it moves quickly when it hits shelves. Sip it neat from a copita, or build the richest Margarita of your year.

How to drink Fortaleza Blanco Still Strength

A few drops of water can round the black pepper edge if 46% feels hot on the first pour, though most regulars skip that step. For a cocktail, keep it simple — a Tommy's Margarita with just lime and agave nectar lets the tahona-crushed agave come through instead of hiding behind triple sec.
