Fortaleza Añejo, crafted from 100% estate-grown Blue Weber agave cooked in a traditional stone/brick oven and tahona-crushed, then matured for about 18 months in American oak barrels, offers an incredible journey for the senses. On the nose, you’re greeted by a rich notes of caramel and butterscotch alongside classic baked agave and vanilla, subtly underscored by orange peel, oak spice, and roasted nuts.

The palate delivers a creamy texture, with sweet agave, warm baking spices, dried fruit, and toasted oak, with delightful notes of maple syrup, chocolate-covered almonds, and nutmeg with each sip. It finishes long and layered finish, where the agave sweetness gently fades, leaving a soft spice and lingering warmth of oak.
