Subtle nose with a decent palate
Nose is subtle. Palate is nice with a long finish. Palate is good on it
Actually lote 73. Step it up TMM ;) Great as usual. Still the best aroma in tequila! Thanks, Baja Bettys 20th anniversary party!
Excellent as always!
There is a dispute in the tequila over the right to certify and label tequila as additive free—but the small brands producing it are bearing the brunt of the fallout
The conversation has shifted to highlight producers that omit glycerin, sweeteners, and other additives in their product. But is additive-free the only indicator of quality?
Sorting through the options can be overwhelming, which is why we always opt to trust the experts. To get their take on a workhorse option, we asked bartenders to share with us their go-to tequilas.
An estimated 70 percent of all tequila contains undisclosed additives, like vanilla extract and aspartame. One couple is on a mission to change that.

Here's the reason for the añejo and extra añejo shortage that you probably didn't know was coming.
Lou gives his seal of approval on this special reposado release from Fortaleza.
I don’t pull out Fortaleza very often. I have many bottles of it and I really do enjoy them all. This Lote 162-B fits in to that category. An excellent example of well made tequila. It has that Fortaleza nose of cooked agave, earth, olive, vegetal notes. No alcohol burn whatsoever. On the palate it is so easy to sip. The viscosity is excellent. Cooked agave, earthy notes, olive brine, such a nice finish. I really should pour these more often. Yeah this brand has the hype but it is well deserved. I only opened this bottle because it was one of the few in my collection I had not rated. I needed it so that my next review was number 400. So 399, you were very fine.
