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.
