Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, Fortaleza Still Strength follows the same artisanal production methods as other expressions in the Fortaleza lineup. The process begins with the careful selection and harvesting of mature blue agave plants. The piñas, or agave hearts, are slowly cooked in traditional stone ovens, crushed, and naturally fermented. The resulting juice is double distilled in copper pot stills, preserving the agave's natural flavors.

What sets Still Strength apart is its unique bottling process—unlike other tequilas, it isn't diluted with water to lower the alcohol content. This means that the tequila is presented at its full, undiluted proof, capturing the full intensity of its character.

In terms of appearance, Fortaleza Still Strength may appear clear or slightly hazy, showcasing its unaltered nature. The nose offers an aromatic experience with intense agave notes, accompanied by hints of citrus, earthiness, and a subtle peppery spice.

On the palate, Fortaleza Still Strength delivers a powerful and full-bodied experience. The natural sweetness of the agave is complemented by robust flavors of pepper, oak, and a rich complexity that comes from its uncut strength. The finish is long-lasting and warming, leaving a lasting impression on the palate.
