Fortaleza Blanco Lot 100B is a Blanco Tequila from Destileria La Fortaleza in Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico. This commemorative release celebrates the 100th bottling run of Fortaleza Blanco since Guillermo Erickson Sauza's first distillations, bottled at 80 proof, additive-free.
Lot 100B is unique in the Fortaleza catalog for two reasons. First, the agave was sourced from a single farm in Arandas, in the Jalisco Highlands - a departure from Fortaleza's standard Tequila Valley estate agave, giving the release a markedly different terroir signature. Second, the spirit was copper pot distilled to exactly 40 percent ABV with no proof-down water cut - believed to be the only tequila ever bottled this way, with the still cut serving as the final bottling strength. Production otherwise follows Fortaleza's traditional methods at NOM 1493: brick-oven slow cooking, tahona stone-wheel extraction, open-air wooden vat fermentation, and double distillation in small copper pot stills.
On the nose, it shows honeyed roasted agave layered with olive brine and fresh mown hay. The palate brings cooked agave, olive, hay, and herbal depth, and the finish carries a strong earthy peppery close.
The combination of Arandas Highlands agave and the no-water-cut distillation makes Lot 100B one of the most distinctive Blancos in the entire Fortaleza catalog. It drinks well neat or over a single large cube.
